A plain illustration showing a petrol pump and fuel station, used to represent daily petrol and diesel price updates in Indian cities.
Petrol and diesel prices remained unchanged today across major Indian cities, including Delhi, Mumbai and Bengaluru. The steady rates bring short-term relief to daily commuters, transport operators and households at a time when fuel costs continue to impact monthly budgets.
In India, fuel prices are revised daily at 6:00 AM by oil marketing companies. These revisions depend on global crude oil prices, currency movement and local taxes. On February 10, no revision was announced in metro cities.
Petrol Price Today – February 10
Petrol prices stayed flat in all major cities today.
Delhi: ₹94.77 per litre, no change
Mumbai: ₹104.21 per litre, no change
Bengaluru: ₹102.92 per litre, no change
Chennai: ₹100.80 per litre, no change

Petrol continues to be costliest in Mumbai and Kolkata due to higher state-level taxes. Delhi remains one of the cheapest metro cities for petrol because of relatively lower VAT.

Delhi: ₹87.67 per litre, no change
Mumbai: ₹90.03 per litre, no change
Bengaluru: ₹90.99 per litre, no change

Unchanged diesel prices are especially important for transporters and logistics companies, as diesel is widely used for goods movement across states.

Why Fuel Prices Matter Every Day
Fuel prices directly affect household spending, transport costs and the prices of essential goods. When petrol and diesel prices rise, delivery charges and travel expenses often increase. Stable prices, like today’s, help keep inflation under control in the short term.
Even small changes in fuel prices can impact monthly budgets for families who depend on two-wheelers, cars or commercial vehicles for daily travel.
How Daily Fuel Pricing Works in India
India follows a dynamic fuel pricing system introduced in June 2017. Under this system, petrol and diesel prices are revised every day instead of once every two weeks.
The final retail price includes:
Base fuel cost
Central excise duty
State VAT
Dealer commission
Since VAT varies from state to state, fuel prices differ across cities even when base prices remain the same.
What Keeps Prices Stable Today
Several factors contributed to unchanged fuel prices on February 10.
Global crude oil prices showed no sharp movement.
The rupee remained stable against the US dollar.
No change was announced in central or state fuel taxes.
As long as these factors remain steady, fuel prices are likely to stay range-bound in the short term.
Impact on Consumers and Businesses
Stable fuel prices help in better planning for:
Daily office travel
School and college transport
Goods transportation
Small businesses dependent on delivery services
For transport operators, unchanged diesel prices reduce pressure to raise freight charges, which can otherwise push up prices of vegetables, groceries and other essentials.
What to Watch in the Coming Days
Fuel prices may change if there is movement in key indicators.
A rise or fall in global crude oil prices
Sharp movement in the rupee-dollar exchange rate
Any change in excise duty or state VAT
Consumers are advised to track daily updates, especially if they plan long-distance travel.
