Petrol and diesel prices on July 17: Rates unchanged. Check latest for your city
The beginning of a new week did not bring with it any major reduction in fuel prices, as these remained constant across major cities on Monday, with only minor revisions made for individual places. Petrol and diesel rates, in fact, have been largely steady since May 21 last year, when the previous pan-nation revision was made.
In India, OMCs such as Bharat Petroleum, Hindustan Petroleum, and Indian Oil, revise petrol and diesel prices, doing so on a daily basis. The rates, whether new or unchanged, are announced at 6am each day.
