Petrol, Diesel Prices Updated January 6
Every day, the companies that sell petrol and diesel in India update the prices at 6 AM.
On January 6, 2026, they changed the prices again.
The cost of petrol and diesel depends on many things, like the price of oil in the world, how strong the Indian rupee is compared to the US dollar, and the taxes that the government adds.
People can check the latest prices by sending a special text message to the companies.
The prices are different in each city, and they haven't changed much since May 2022 because the government lowered some taxes.
Petrol and diesel prices updated daily at 6 AM by Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs).
Prices vary by city, with Delhi at ₹94.72/L for petrol and ₹87.62/L for diesel.
Global crude oil prices, exchange rates, and taxes influence fuel prices in India.
Prices have remained relatively stable since May 2022 due to tax reductions.
Consumers can check prices via SMS by sending specific codes to designated numbers.
