In the last 24 hours, there has been a slight drop in crude oil prices in the global market. The price of Brent crude has fallen to $ 69.01 and WTI crude to $ 66.76 per barrel. However, this change has not affected every city in India. New rates of petrol and diesel were released in the country on Tuesday morning, in which some cities got minor relief, and in some places prices increased further. Oil became cheaper in cities like Noida, while both petrol and diesel became expensive in Patna. At the same time, petrol and diesel prices in big metros like Delhi, Mumbai remain stable.
These changes show that now not only global crude price, but factories like tax, transport and dealer commissions at the state level are also affecting the rate. Therefore, the trend of prices in every city seems to be different.
Prices stable in Delhi-Mumbai, Stir in the rest of the cities
There has been no change in the rate of petrol and diesel in the four metro cities of the country-Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai and Kolkata today.
Petrol in Delhi is Rs 94.72 and diesel is Rs 87.62 a liter.

Petrol in Chennai is Rs 100.76 and diesel is Rs 92.35 per liter.

Relief in Noida, Price increased in Ghaziabad and Patna
The people of Noida got some relief on Tuesday morning.
Petrol became cheaper by 18 paise to 94.75 rupees a liter.
Diesel declined by 19 paise to Rs 87.78 per liter.
The situation in Ghaziabad remained the opposite.
Prices have also increased in Patna, the capital of Bihar.
Why the rates of petrol and diesel in cities are different?
Petrol and diesel prices are not the same as it adds taxes and charges at many levels.
It consists of costs such as excise duty, VAT and dealer commission.
Due to this, it becomes almost twice as expensive than the original price.
The tax policy of each state is different, so that the rates also remain different in each city.
