Petrol, Diesel Prices Updated December 26
Every day, the prices of petrol and diesel in India change at 6 AM.
These prices are set by companies that sell oil.
On December 26, 2025, the prices were different in each city.
For example, in New Delhi, petrol costs ₹94.72 per liter, and diesel costs ₹87.62 per liter.
In Mumbai, petrol is more expensive at ₹104.21 per liter, and diesel is ₹92.15 per liter.
The prices change based on how much oil costs around the world and how strong the Indian rupee is compared to the US dollar.
