There were no changes in petrol and diesel prices across the country on Sunday, March 13, either. Earlier, the petrol price in Delhi was higher as compared to the NCR cities of Uttar Pradesh and Haryana, wherein the state governments announced a VAT cut following the Centre reducing the excise duty on fuel prices. Currently, fuel is cheaper in Delhi than in the rest of the metros because the state government had earlier decided to reduce the Value-Added Tax (VAT) on petrol, which brought down the price by Rs 8 per litre.
Opposition-ruled Punjab and Rajasthan also followed the national capital and announced the biggest reduction in petrol prices. Petrol price in Punjab was reduced by as much as Rs 16.02 per litre and diesel by Rs 19.61 a litre.
As of March 13, a litre of petrol in Delhi costs Rs 95.41, while the rate of diesel was Rs 86.67 per litre. In Mumbai, you can buy petrol for Rs 109.98 per litre and a litre of diesel costs Rs 94.14. Down the south, in Chennai, a litre of petrol is priced at Rs 101.40, and the price of diesel is Rs 91.43 per litre. Petrol is being sold at Rs 107.23 per litre in Bhopal, and the diesel costs Rs 90.87 per litre.
