New Delhi: On December 17, after the Centre slashed excise tax to bring retail rates down from record highs, petrol and diesel prices stayed unchanged across metros for nearly a month.
On November 3, the government decreased excise duty on petrol by Rs 5 per litre and diesel by Rs 10 per litre to provide comfort to customers who have been hit hard by record-high retail gasoline costs. As a result, many states and union territories have reduced value-added tax (VAT) to provide additional relief to customers who have been hit by record-high retail prices.
In the national capital, petrol costs Rs 95.41 per litre, while diesel costs Rs 86.67 per litre.
