Effective: 5 November 2026. Checked: 5 November 2026.
PSO’s dated archive records another reduction in petrol and high-speed diesel, following the 4 November fuel-price cut. Premier Euro 5 is now listed at Rs362 per litre, down Rs7.06, and Hi-Cetane Diesel Euro 5 at Rs387.81, down Rs3.71.
Three revisions, one useful comparison
Against PSO’s 31 October entries of Rs377.91 and Rs402.96, the cumulative reductions are Rs15.91 for petrol and Rs15.15 for diesel per litre. These differences are calculated from the official PSO archive, using its effective dates rather than the dates newspaper reports appeared.
Budget impact depends on litres used
Our arithmetic example: 40 litres of petrol costs Rs636.40 less at the new published reference than at the 31 October reference. For diesel, the equivalent difference is Rs606. These examples assume unchanged consumption; they do not predict transport fares or guarantee a particular outlet’s bill.
For your own journey, multiply litres consumed by the actual pump price. Our fuel cost calculator guide explains how to keep units consistent. Treat a published reference and a dealer’s final charge as separate observations; check the grade, displayed rate and receipt.
Announcement versus effective date
Aaj’s report published at 10:54pm on 4 November corroborates the reductions for 5 November. This article records that new revision, not a forecast. No explanation of its cause is inferred from the PSO table.
