Petrol, diesel prices remain stable across major Indian cities

Petrol, diesel prices remain stable across major Indian cities

Petrol and diesel are fuels that power cars, buses and motorcycles.

In India, new fuel prices are announced every day.

On 8 August 2026, the prices stayed the same as the day before.

In Delhi, petrol costs about 102 rupees per litre.

In Hyderabad, petrol costs almost 116 rupees per litre, the most expensive of the big cities.

Diesel always costs less than petrol in every city.

India buys most of its crude oil from other countries, so global oil prices matter.

Government taxes, demand and the value of the rupee also change the price.

That is why people in different cities pay different amounts.
