Bumper cut in petrol and diesel prices! New rate of petrol and diesel released in every state Fuel Price Cut 2025

Fuel Price Cut 2025 –This time this relief has been received due to the grace of both the government and the international market. So let us know how much the prices have come down, how much petrol is available in which state now, and how it will affect the lives of common people.

What has changed in the prices of petrol and diesel?

Oil prices have come down by an average of ₹ 2 to ₹ 5 per liter across the country. However, this reduction is not the same in every state, because every state levies tax and cess according to its own. That is why the price of petrol is low in states like Delhi and Uttar Pradesh, while in states like Maharashtra and Rajasthan it is still above Rs 100.

New rates in some major cities (as of October 2023):

1. City Petrol (₹/liter) Diesel (₹/liter)
2. Delhi 95.85 86.75
3. Mumbai 101.52 93.29
4. Kolkata 99.45 91.62
5. Chennai 97.90 91.43
6. Bengaluru 100.58 92.04
7. Hyderabad 103.56 97.82
8. Pune 101.75 93.55
9. Ahmedabad 95.13 91.95

Why have prices decreased?

1. There are many reasons behind the fall in petrol and diesel prices this time:
2. International crude oil prices have fallen.
3. Prices had risen earlier due to the Russia-Ukraine war and the policies of OPEC countries, but now there is some stability in the market.
4. The government has given relief in some taxes.
5. VAT has been reduced in many states, which directly benefited the general public.
6. Temporary decrease in demand.
7. There has been a slight decrease in the activities of the agriculture and transport sector during the monsoon season, which has reduced the demand.

How will this affect your pocket?

1. Transport costs will decrease – There will definitely be some relief in refueling vehicles. Drivers who travel long distances or those who travel daily will clearly see the difference.
2. Vegetables and grocery items may become cheaper – If transport becomes cheaper, then it is natural that the price of goods will also be affected.
3. Relief to farmers – Due to the reduction in diesel prices, the cost of irrigation in the fields, running tractors etc. will decrease.
4. Impact on electricity bill – States where electricity is generated from diesel may get some relief.

How is the state-by-state comparison?

1. In some states, oil prices are still higher than other states, especially where tax rates are high.
2. State Petrol (₹) Diesel (₹)
3. Uttar Pradesh 96.50 89.00
4. Punjab 98.45 91.55
5. Maharashtra 101.52 93.29
6. Rajasthan 102.25 95.36
7. Tamil Nadu 97.90 91.43

States like Rajasthan and Maharashtra are still counted among the states with the most expensive petrol and diesel.

What will happen next? Will prices decrease or increase further?

The answer to this depends entirely on the movement of the international market and the policy of the government. If crude oil prices remain low like this and the government continues to give tax relief, then more relief may be available in the coming weeks.

But if the international situation worsens or the price of the dollar rises, then the oil prices can go up again. Therefore, enjoy the relief you have got for now, but at the same time it is important to be a little cautious.

What is the general public saying?

"This is a matter of relief for us. Every month we have to fill petrol in our bikes 3-4 times. Now we will save some money." - Rohit, Delhi

"I am a farmer, driving a tractor has become a little easier due to the cheaper diesel." - Ram Singh, Madhya Pradesh

"The rent does not decrease, but the reduction in oil prices has raised some hope." - Suman, Noida

Whenever the oil prices increase or decrease, the common man is the first to be affected. The relief we have got this time is definitely small, but it is timely. If this trend continues in the coming months, then the public can get some more relief during the festive season.

So if you have also felt a little relief at the petrol pump compared to last month, then understand that both the government and the market have shown some mercy. It remains to be seen what happens next.
