Petrol rates resumed their upward journey on September 28, 2021 for the first time in over two months. The increase in fuel rates in domestic markets mirrored international oil price surge for the fifth straight day and global crude benchmark nearing $80 per barrel levels. India meets nearly 85 percent of its oil requirements through imports and hence benchmarks domestic rates to international crude rates.

Metro city	Petrol rate in Rs/litre	Diesel rate in Rs./litre
Delhi	101.64	Rs. 89.87
