Fuel Prices Remain Unchanged Across Major Indian Cities on April 22, 2026

Fuel rates across major Indian cities remained unchanged on Wednesday, continuing the extended phase of stability in petrol and diesel prices. Retail fuel prices have held steady despite fluctuations in global crude oil markets and currency movements. There have been no immediate revisions in petrol and diesel rates across key cities so far.

The three major oil marketing companies (OMCs) in India, Indian Oil Corporation (IOC), Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited (BPCL), and Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited (HPCL), revise fuel prices daily to align with global crude oil prices and foreign exchange rate movements. However, prices have remained stable in recent sessions.

In Delhi, petrol continues to be priced at Rs 94.77 per litre, while diesel stands at Rs 87.67 per litre. Prices remain higher in Mumbai, where petrol is retailing at Rs 103.49 per litre and diesel at around Rs 90.03 per litre.

Fuel prices in India are revised daily based on movements in global crude oil prices and changes in foreign exchange rates. Despite volatility in global crude oil markets, petrol and diesel prices in India have remained largely stable over the past few years. Retail fuel prices have seen limited movement since May 2022, when excise duties and state taxes were reduced.
