Petrol, Diesel Prices Hold Steady on December 20. Here's What You're Paying in Your State

New Delhi: Fuel prices in India remained largely unchanged on December 20 with petrol and diesel rates steady in most states and cities.

Rates continue to differ from state to state due to local taxes, but there has been no fresh hike or cut at the national level.

Why haven't prices moved much?

Oil marketing companies (OMCs) revise fuel prices daily, but recent global crude trends and stable tax structures have kept retail rates frozen.

How much are the petrol prices state-wise?

Here's a look at petrol prices in key states and cities on December 20:

• Delhi: Rs 94.72 per litre
