On May 21, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman announced the reduction in Excise Duty on fuel prices, which led to some respite from the soaring petrol and diesel prices.

Fuel prices in the country are set by Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) on a daily basis. The prices are based on the fuel’s benchmark average price over the previous 15 days in the global market and the foreign exchange rates. Apart from OMCs, the fuel price also varies from state to state and this happens because of several local factors. The cost of petrol and diesel in a state depends on freight charges and local taxes (VAT).
