Petrol and Diesel Prices Announced Today: Check How Much you have to Pay for Fuel in your City
Petrol and diesel prices in India remained constant for over a month on December 9, except for the national capital. The Delhi government had recently announced to reduce the Value-Added Tax (VAT) on petrol. After the much-awaited tax cut, petrol in Delhi became cheaper by Rs 8 per litre, providing a relief to aam aadmi.
The central government had decided to cut excise duty on fuel last month to bring down sky-rocketing prices. The Centre had reduced excise duty on petrol and diesel by Rs 5 and Rs 10, respective on November 3. Following this, several states, mostly ruled by National Democratic Alliance (NDA) and allies, had also announced reduction of VAT on auto fuel, resulting in a sharp decrease in petrol and diesel prices across the country. Opposition-ruled Punjab and Rajasthan also cut Value-Added Tax or VAT on petrol and diesel later. With back-to-back tax cut by the Centre and state government, petrol has come down below Rs 100-per-litre mark in several parts of India.
Diesel price also witnessed a sharp drop after tax cut. In Delhi, diesel was priced at 86.67 per litre on Thursday. A litre of diesel was available at Rs 94.14 in the financial capital. A litre of diesel would cost Rs 91.43 per litre in Chennai. In Kolkata, diesel price was Rs 101.56 a litre on December 9.
