Petrol and diesel prices remained unchanged for the 25th consecutive day on November 29 since the Central government cut the excise duty on the two fuels to bring down retail rates from record highs, according to a price notification of state-owned fuel retailers.

The November 4 decline took the price of petrol in Delhi to Rs 103.97 a litre. The price remained the same on November 29. Diesel price also stayed unchanged at Rs 86.67 per litre on the day.

In Mumbai, fuel prices witnessed a similar trend. The petrol price remained unchanged and retailed at Rs 109.98 a litre. On May 29, Mumbai became the first metro in the country where petrol was retailed above Rs 100 per litre. Diesel price also remained the same and sold at Rs 94.14 per litre.
