In Mumbai, people had to shell out Rs 75.88 per litre for petrol, which was Rs 76.04 on Thursday. Diesel retailed at Rs 67.28 per litre against Rs 67.45 a litre on Thursday.

According to the Indian Oil Corporation, petrol was at Rs 72.44 per litre in Kolkata, a 17 paise decrease from yesterday's Rs 72.61 a litre, while diesel costs Rs 66.09 per litre.

In Chennai, petrol retailed at Rs 72.90 per litre against yesterday's Rs 73.08 a litre, while diesel cost Rs 67.88 per litre against Rs 68.05 on Thursday.

The prices are revised at 0600 hrs daily, while earlier they used to be revised every fortnight.
