On April 14, 2026, petrol and diesel prices across major cities in India remained stable despite ongoing global oil market volatility linked to geopolitical tensions in West Asia, particularly involving Iran, Israel, and the United States. The Indian government has assured consumers that prices will remain steady for the time being, as oil marketing companies (OMCs) absorb some of the fluctuations to prevent sudden price hikes. Current petrol prices in major cities include ₹94.72 per litre in New Delhi and ₹104.21 in Mumbai, while diesel prices are ₹87.62 and ₹92.15, respectively. Despite the stability, private fuel retailers have raised prices for premium petrol and diesel, with IndianOil's XP100 petrol increasing by ₹11 to ₹160 per litre. The government’s commitment to maintaining fuel price stability aims to alleviate inflationary pressures on consumers, even as global crude prices remain high due to potential disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz, a vital oil shipping route. Consumers can easily check the latest fuel prices via SMS services provided by oil companies.
