Mumbai petrol cost ₹111.21 per litre, while Mumbai diesel cost ₹97.83.
Delhi had petrol at ₹102.12 and diesel at ₹95.20.
Hyderabad had the highest prices among the cities shown.
The government said it does not currently plan to increase fuel prices.
However, the price of Brent crude rose from $102.27 to $105.70 per barrel across the two days.
India imports much of its crude, so global oil prices and the rupee-dollar exchange rate can affect fuel costs.
Taxes, transportation expenses and local demand also make fuel prices different from one city to another.
Mumbai petrol costs ₹111.21 per litre and diesel ₹97.83, unchanged from the previous day.
Delhi petrol is priced at ₹102.12 per litre, while diesel costs ₹95.20.
Among the listed cities, Hyderabad has the highest petrol and diesel prices at ₹116.15 and ₹104.23 per litre.
The government reportedly has no current proposal to raise petrol or diesel prices despite volatile global crude prices.
Brent crude rose from $102.27 per barrel on September 24 to $105.70 on September 25, while taxes, exchange rates, transport costs and demand affect retail prices.
