Petrol and diesel prices remained unchanged across major Indian cities on Friday, September 25, 2026, offering consumers some stability despite continued volatility in the international crude oil market.

Oil marketing companies (OMCs) updated their daily retail fuel prices at 6 am, with no fresh revision announced for petrol or diesel in the cities listed below. In Delhi, petrol continues to cost ₹102.12 per litre, while diesel is priced at ₹95.20 per litre.

In Mumbai, the latest city-wise rate list puts petrol at ₹111.31 per litre and diesel at ₹97.97 per litre.

Fuel prices vary from one city to another because of differences in taxes, transportation costs and other local factors. Consumers should therefore check the rate applicable to their own city instead of relying on a national-level price.

Why Are Petrol and Diesel Prices Updated Every Day?

India's oil marketing companies review petrol and diesel prices daily, with revised rates generally taking effect from 6 am.

Several factors can influence retail fuel pricing. International crude oil prices are an important component because India imports a significant portion of its crude requirement. Movements in the rupee-dollar exchange rate can also affect the cost of importing crude.

Taxes imposed on fuel, dealer-related costs, freight expenses and location-specific factors can further influence the final amount paid by consumers.

This means international crude prices and domestic petrol or diesel rates do not always move in exactly the same direction or at the same time.

Crude Oil Market Remains in Focus

Global crude supply conditions continue to attract attention amid recent geopolitical developments and disruptions to major energy transportation routes.

According to a Bloomberg report cited in the source material, Saudi Arabia has increased crude shipments through the Strait of Hormuz after disruption involving its East-West pipeline, also known as Petroline, affected supply through the Red Sea route.

The 746-mile East-West pipeline is an important part of Saudi Arabia's energy infrastructure because it provides an alternative route for transporting crude to the Red Sea.

The reported disruption had affected oil flows through the Yanbu port on the Red Sea. However, shipments have subsequently increased through other available routes.

Saudi Crude Shipments Reportedly Rise

According to tanker-tracking data cited by Bloomberg, Saudi crude shipments have averaged approximately 5.28 million barrels per day so far in September, reportedly the highest level since February.

The increase in shipments is significant because concerns about supply availability can have a direct impact on international crude prices.

The report, citing traders, also said Saudi Arabia sold around 100 million barrels of crude oil last week for delivery to Asian refineries during October and November through the Hormuz route.

Additional supplies can help reduce pressure caused by earlier disruptions, although crude prices can continue to respond to geopolitical events, global demand expectations, production decisions and shipping conditions.

Why Global Crude Prices Matter for Indian Consumers

Changes in international crude oil prices are closely watched in India because they influence the cost structure of domestic oil companies.

The source report noted that during an earlier period of rising crude prices, oil marketing companies were estimated to be facing losses of around ₹8 per litre on petrol and ₹9 per litre on diesel. Such figures can change with crude prices, exchange rates and other market conditions, so they should not be treated as permanent margins.

A fall in crude prices also does not necessarily translate into an immediate or identical reduction in retail petrol and diesel prices. Domestic pricing depends on several components beyond the underlying crude cost.

Fuel Prices Stay Unchanged on September 25

For consumers, the immediate takeaway is straightforward: no fresh change has been reported in petrol and diesel prices for September 25, 2026, in the cities listed above.

Delhi motorists are paying ₹102.12 per litre for petrol and ₹95.20 for diesel, while the listed Mumbai rates stand at ₹111.31 and ₹97.97 per litre, respectively.

With international crude supplies and geopolitical developments remaining important factors for the oil market, consumers can continue checking the daily fuel price update released at 6 am to know the latest petrol and diesel rates applicable in their city.
