Petrol, diesel prices remain unchanged: Check fuel rates here
The petrol and diesel prices remained the same across the country, on Friday, February 4.
Last month, the Delhi government had reduced the value-added tax on petrol from 30 per cent to 19.40 per cent. With this, petrol prices in the national capital were slashed by Rs 8.56 per litre.
Accordingly, a litre of petrol costs Rs 95.41 in Delhi, while diesel rates stand at Rs 86.67 per litre.
In Mumbai, petrol is retailed at Rs 109.98 per litre, while diesel is being sold at Rs 94.14 per litre. Among the metro cities, fuel rates are still the highest in Mumbai. Fuel prices vary across the states due to value-added tax or VAT.
Diesel and petrol prices also remained static in Kolkata at Rs 89.79 and Rs 104.67. In Chennai too, they remained unchanged at Rs 91.43 and Rs 101.40.
State-run oil refiners such as Indian Oil, Bharat Petroleum, and Hindustan Petroleum revise the fuel rates on a daily basis, by taking into account the crude oil prices in the international markets, and the rupee-dollar exchange rates.
Crude oil prices rose by Rs 8 to Rs 6,585 per barrel on Thursday, as participants widened their positions on a firm spot demand. On the Multi Commodity Exchange, crude oil for the February delivery traded higher by Rs 8, or 0.12 per cent, to Rs 6,585 per barrel in 9,667 lots.
Globally, West Texas Intermediate crude oil lost 0.15 per cent to USD 88.13 per barrel, while Brent crude traded 0.02 per cent lower at USD 89.45 per barrel in New York.
