Following the revision, petrol will retail at Rs335 per litre and HSD at Rs364 per litre as of Nov 12 (Thursday). The government continues to levy taxes and duties of Rs114 per litre on petrol and Rs100 per litre on diesel.
This reduction, effective for 30 days, is part of the Prime Minister’s Fuel Relief Scheme aimed at easing the public's burden amid rising fuel prices due to the Middle East situation.
