The Official Fuel Prices Thread

SumitB · 1st July 2009, 18:47

I am creating a new thread for the benefit of all members. Have already posted in the Fuel Price Thread.

From midnight tonight, petrol will be costlier by Rs. 4/- per litre and diesel will be dearer by Rs. 2/- per litre. Go tank up if you intend to do so in the next few days.

To mods, please delete this thread once it serves it purpose.

Check this : Petrol prices up by Rs 4, diesel Rs 2

Luckily I tanked up last night. May not be much, but a penny saved is a penny earned.

extreme_torque · 1st July 2009, 19:27

yes confirmed... petrol hiked by a hefty 4 Rs and diesel by Rs 2! argh!

@greehorn... you drive a diesel... right? :P

coolboy007 · 1st July 2009, 19:42

Both my Petrol cars were filled up yesterday and today morning. Linea drank 28 litres and Santro 26.
Chalo, atleast some money saved, can have a ice cream with that

Scorpio is at half tank but now who will rush to petrol pump, there will be 5-6 lines of cars queued to save some bucks.

Sonia Gandhi has arranged a meeting or something so maybe we can get a 1-2 rs fall from this Rs 4 hike

sammyboy · 1st July 2009, 19:48

Cool so its 51/liter in good ol Bangy. Oh man. :(

thiyags22 · 1st July 2009, 19:48

I am an idiot

. Yesterday went to tamilnadu but since it was late did not fill petrol. Now I have to pay almost 8 rupees more in Bangalore for a litre of petrol.
