Fuel prices have been hiked after a gap of more than four months. In November last year, the government had cut excise duty on fuel in order to provide relief to consumers. Petrol price was at an all-time high when the government slashed duty on petrol by Rs 5 per litre and diesel by Rs 10 a litre.

The increase in petrol and diesel prices depends on several factors like demand, valuation of INR against USD and cost of crude oil in the international market.

 Local taxes like value-added tax (VAT) and freight charges can also push fuel prices higher.
