Fuel prices in the country remained unchanged for yet another day on Tuesday, February 7.For around eight months, the cost of petrol and diesel across the nation has remained constant.
The last time the changes in fuel prices were announced was on May 21, 2022, with a reduction in excise duty on petrol by Rs 8 and diesel by Rs 6. The price freeze has been in place as the state-owned oil companies, determined to recover from the losses, have not announced any modification in the rates of the two main fuels even after a drop in crude oil prices in the international market.
Any change in the fuel prices is announced every day at six in the morning. Fuel prices are influenced across states by a range of variables, including Value Added Tax (VAT), freight costs, municipal taxes, and more.
