Petrol and Diesel Prices in Several Indian Cities Now Lower Than Dubai's
As of October 22, petrol and diesel prices in several Indian cities, including Delhi and Noida, are lower than those in Dubai, where fuel costs rose in October. Petrol in Delhi is nearly Rs 8 cheaper per litre than Dubai's Special 95 grade, while diesel shows a difference of over Rs 28 per litre. However, prices vary across Indian cities due to state taxes and transportation costs, with some cities like Mumbai and Kolkata having higher petrol prices than Dubai. The comparison also depends on petrol grades and exchange rates.
