Petrol Prices On January 30, 2022: Fuel prices remained unchanged for the 86th consecutive day across metro cities
Petrol, Diesel Prices Today: Fuel prices remained unchanged for the 86th consecutive day across metro cities on Sunday, January 30, 2022. This is the longest period when fuel prices have remained unchanged, ever since daily revision of prices began in June 2017.
Before this, there was an 82-day break in rate revision between March 17, 2020 and June 6, 2020, when the national lockdown was in place. The current status quo in petrol and diesel prices has also continued as assembly elections in several high profile states like Uttar Pradesh and Punjab are round the corner.
In December 2021, 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.
