Fuel prices hiked
|
New Delhi, May 15 : Petrol and diesel prices were hiked by Rs 3 per litre each on Friday, marking the first increase in more than four years, as State-run fuel retailers passed on part of the hit from surging global crude prices triggered by the Iran war.
In Manipur a litre of petrol will now cost Rs 102.3 per litre up from the earlier Rs 99.15 while diesel will cost Rs 88.15 per litre, up from the Rs 85.23 earlier.
Alongside, CNG prices in cities like Delhi and Mumbai were raised by Rs 2 per kg.
Petrol price in the National capital has been increased to Rs 97.77 per litre from Rs 94.77 while diesel now costs Rs 90.67 as against Rs 87.67 per litre previously, industry sources said.
Rates vary across States due to differences in value-added tax.
