The biggest factor is the price of crude oil in the international market, as crude oil is the key raw material used to make petrol and diesel. When global crude prices rise or fall, fuel prices in India can also be affected.Another important factor is the rupee-dollar exchange rate. Since India imports a large share of its crude oil, a weaker rupee can make imports more expensive, while a stronger rupee can help reduce costs.Taxes also play a major role. The Central government's excise duty and state governments' Value Added Tax (VAT) are added to fuel prices, which is why petrol and diesel rates vary from one city to another.Do Petrol and Diesel prices change every day?India follows a dynamic fuel pricing system, which allows Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) such as Indian Oil, Bharat Petroleum and Hindustan Petroleum to review fuel prices every day.However, daily review does not necessarily mean daily changes. Even though OMCs assess market conditions regularly, petrol and diesel prices may remain unchanged for days or even weeks. This can happen despite fluctuations in global crude oil prices, currency exchange rates, or international fuel markets.When market conditions and policy considerations support a revision, oil companies may increase or decrease retail fuel prices. In short, fuel prices are checked every day, but they are not automatically revised every day.
