On April 22, 2026, petrol prices across major Indian cities remained stable despite fluctuations in global crude oil prices, which are currently around $98 per barrel. In Delhi, petrol is priced at ₹94.77 per litre, while Mumbai reports the highest price at ₹103.50 per litre. Other cities like Kolkata and Hyderabad also report higher rates, with Kolkata at ₹105.41 and Hyderabad at ₹107.46. The stability in petrol prices comes amid geopolitical tensions, particularly following US President Donald Trump's ceasefire extension with Iran. The Indian government may be inclined to keep fuel prices steady due to the approaching state elections, although rising global oil prices and a weakening rupee could pressure companies like Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited and Indian Oil Corporation Limited to consider price adjustments in the future.
