Full List: Andhra Pradesh and Kerala Top the Chart for Costliest Petrol, Followed by Other States

Petrol and diesel prices are at their highest in Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, and Kerala, making them the costliest in the country. Conversely, fuel prices are more affordable in smaller states and union territories such as Andaman & Nicobar Islands and Delhi. According to data from the oil industry, this disparity is primarily attributed to varying local sales tax or VAT rates.

Following a reduction of ₹2 per litre for both petrol and diesel, the first decrease in nearly two years, prices remain above the ₹100 per litre mark in certain states due to higher Value Added Tax (VAT) rates.
