Maharashtra fuel costs dip slightly amid persistent high rates
Mumbai, June 27 (UNI) Fuel prices remain a significant burden for residents across Maharashtra, directly impacting household budgets and broader inflationary pressures. The latest petrol and diesel rates, effective from 6 AM today, June 27, 2025, have been officially announced statewide. Authorities urge motorists to verify the updated costs specific to their location before refuelling. While providing modest relief, today's figures confirm petrol continues to exceed 104 rupees per litre across most major urban centres in the state, with diesel generally priced above 91 rupees. Notable examples include Ahmednagar at 104.59 rupees for petrol and 91.12 for diesel, Akola at 104.64 and 91.18 rupees, and Amravati at 104.88 and 91.41 rupees respectively. Aurangabad reports petrol at 104.53 and diesel at 91.05 rupees. Regional variations persist. Bhandara's petrol costs 104.67 rupees, while Beed sees a higher rate of 105.50 rupees; diesel in these cities is priced at 91.21 and 92.03 rupees respectively. Mumbai City offers the lowest observed petrol price at 103.50 rupees and diesel at 90.03 rupees. Conversely, Nandurbar recorded the highest petrol price at 105.97 rupees, with Palghar seeing the peak diesel cost of 99.43 rupees. Other cities like Buldhana, Chandrapur, Dhule, Gadchiroli, Gondia, Hingoli, Jalgaon, Jalna, Kolhapur, Latur, Nagpur, Nanded, Nashik, Osmanabad, Parbhani, Pune, Raigad, Ratnagiri, Sangli, Satara, Sindhudurg, Solapur, Thane, Wardha, Washim, and Yavatmal show petrol prices ranging within this spectrum. These daily fluctuations are driven primarily by volatile international crude oil markets, compounded by local factors including Value-Added Tax (VAT), state levies, and transportation expenses. The slight decrease noted today offers consumers a minor respite, though rates remain substantially elevated. Fuel prices are dynamically adjusted each morning to reflect prevailing global and domestic market conditions. UNI AAA ARN

Maharashtra sees slight petrol-diesel price relief; Mumbai remains cheapest
Mumbai, June 25 (UNI) Maharashtra recorded a marginal decline in fuel prices today, offering modest relief to consumers amid persistent inflation concerns. The 6 AM revision showed petrol continuing above 104 per litre across most districts, while diesel remained over 90 statewide, with international crude trends and local levies maintaining pressure on household budgets. Mumbai maintained its position as the lowest-cost metro, with petrol at 103.50 and diesel at 90.03 per litre. Significant variations persist across regions: Ahmednagar (104.30 petrol, 90.83 diesel), Aurangabad (104.73 petrol, 91.24 diesel), and Beed report the highest at 105.50 for petrol alongside 92.03 for diesel. Multiple districts, including Hingoli, Parbhani, and Yavatmal, matched Beed's peak petrol rate. The slight downward adjustment reflects recent global oil market movements, though Value-Added Tax (VAT), transportation costs, and state-specific taxes continue to influence regional disparities. Daily price revisions by oil marketing companies ensure alignment with international benchmarks. While today's dip provides fractional respite, economists note fuel costs remain a critical inflation indicator, with further volatility expected amid fluctuating crude markets and domestic fiscal policies.
