Fuel Rates Today: Check Petrol, Diesel Prices In Delhi, Mumbai And Other Cities On October 20

All across the country, fuel prices remained unchanged on Thursday, October 20, continuing the nearly five-month-long trend of stable prices in India. The last nationwide change in fuel prices occurred in May when the government announced a price drop in petrol and diesel prices due to cuts in excise duty. Disruptions in oil supply due to various geopolitical scenarios, the Russia-Ukraine war being the most notable amongst these, have pushed global oil prices upwards.

The retail price of petrol in Mumbai is steady at Rs 106.31 per litre, while diesel is being sold at Rs 94.27 per litre. Down south, in Chennai, a litre of petrol was being sold at Rs 102.63.
