As of Monday, January 12, 2026, the petrol price in Mumbai stands at ₹103.50 per litre, with no change from yesterday’s rate. Over the past 10 days, petrol prices in India have moved within a narrow range, showing only minor variations.

Diesel price in Mumbai remains at ₹90.03 per litre, unchanged for the past 12 months, with the last revision recorded on December 17, 2024. Consumers can check state-wise and district-wise petrol and diesel prices, compare daily fuel rates, and track regional differences, with all figures inclusive of applicable state taxes.

Even with volatility in the global crude oil market, India’s petrol and diesel prices have remained largely unchanged for more than 11 months, supported by government pricing policies and decisions taken by oil marketing companies.

Fuel prices in India are determined by several key factors, including international crude oil trends, rupee–dollar exchange rate movements, central excise duty, and state-level VAT, all of which play a major role in shaping retail fuel costs.

However, petrol prices in India remain higher than in neighbouring countries, including Nepal, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka. This price gap is mainly due to higher excise duty and state VAT, keeping India’s retail petrol price among the highest in South Asia, despite global price moderation.

LPG price update (January 12)

The price of a 14.2 kg domestic LPG cylinder in Mumbai is ₹852.50, with no revision recorded since April 2025 after a ₹50 price rise earlier this year. Over the last 12 months, LPG prices in India have increased by ₹50 between December 2024 and November 2025, indicating a gradual yet steady rise in household cooking gas costs.

Domestic LPG pricing in India is regulated by state-run oil marketing companies and is reviewed on a monthly basis. Most Indian households continue to depend on LPG as their primary cooking fuel, making price movements highly significant for consumers. To ease the financial burden, the Government provides LPG subsidy benefits, credited directly to eligible beneficiaries’ bank accounts. Subsidy values are adjusted monthly based on global LPG benchmark prices, international market trends, and rupee–dollar exchange fluctuations.
