The Indian government has been making efforts to stabilize fuel costs. Recently, there was a reduction in fuel prices, with petrol decreasing by around ₹9.5 per litre and diesel by nearly ₹7 per litre, following adjustments in central excise duty. This move aimed to ease inflationary pressures and provide financial relief to households and businesses.
Daily commuters and transport operators are expected to benefit from these reduced rates. For example, filling a 40-litre tank could save around ₹300-₹350 for petrol and ₹280 for diesel.
