Oil marketing organisations such as Bharat Petroleum, Indian Oil, and Hindustan Petroleum modify the prices of petrol and diesel. Every day at 6 a.m., the new pricing goes into effect. Because of differences in value-added taxes, local and freight charges, and other factors, fuel prices vary by state and city.
