Petrol Diesel Price Today: New rates of petrol and diesel released on September 14; Check the latest list of your city from Delhi, Patna, Lucknow to Mumbai.

The country’s leading oil marketing companies—Indian Oil (IOCL), Bharat Petroleum (BPCL) and Hindustan Petroleum (HPCL)—on Monday, 14 September 2026 Official rates of petrol and diesel have been released. Despite recent fluctuations in crude oil prices in international commodity markets and high levels of Brent crude, oil companies have kept retail fuel prices stable, giving relief to the general public and transporters at the domestic level. There has been a difference in the prices of petrol and diesel in different states and cities on the basis of local value added tax (VAT) and transportation charges levied at the state level.

Today’s retail rates per liter of petrol and diesel in the four major metros of the country are as follows:

The prices recorded as per VAT rates in various cities of North India, Western and Southern states are as follows:

• Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh): Petrol ₹94.53 per liter and diesel ₹87.62 per liter

• Noida/Greater Noida: Petrol ₹94.72 per liter and diesel ₹87.83 per liter

• Gurugram (Haryana): Petrol ₹95.19 per liter and diesel ₹88.05 per liter

• Patna (Bihar): Petrol ₹105.18 per liter and diesel ₹92.04 per liter

• Jaipur (Rajasthan): Petrol ₹104.88 per liter and diesel ₹90.36 per liter

• Bengaluru (Karnataka): Petrol ₹102.86 per liter and diesel ₹88.94 per liter

• Hyderabad (Telangana): Petrol ₹107.41 per liter and diesel ₹95.65 per liter

• Ahmedabad (Gujarat): Petrol ₹94.44 per liter and diesel ₹90.11 per liter

• Chandigarh: Petrol ₹94.24 per liter and diesel ₹82.40 per liter

There is a huge difference in the prices of petrol and diesel in every state and city in the same country, ranging from ₹ 5 to ₹ 12 per liter. There are mainly three reasons behind this:

• State Level VAT and Cess: While the Central Government imposes a uniform Central Excise Duty across the country, the State Governments collect VAT and local cess in different percentages.

• Freight Charges: The further the cities are from coastal refineries or pipeline terminals, the higher the prices due to the addition of road and rail transport costs.

• Dealer Commission: The commission paid to petrol pump dealers is also included in the per liter rate.

India imports about 85% of its crude oil requirement from abroad. The prices of Brent crude and US WTI in the global market and the exchange rate of the Indian rupee against the dollar directly affect the import cost. Dynamic fuel pricing system is in place in the country, under which state-owned oil companies revise and update new fuel rates every day at 6:00 am based on the 15-day international average.
