The prices of petrol and diesel have been slashed by 40 paise per litre.
The new prices will be effective from 6 a.m. on Tuesday.
On
Monday, the cost of petrol in the national capital was Rs 96.72, Rs
106.03 in Kolkata, Rs 106.31 in Mumbai and Rs 102.63 in Chennai.
The
drop in prices was expected as international crude oil prices dropped
and have remained stable for some time. The crude oil price has remained
below 95 dollars per barrel for some time now.
The drop in fuel
prices comes after more than six months of holding steady. The last
reduction in price was on April 7 this year.
