Demand: An increase in demand for petrol and diesel often results in higher prices.

Crude Oil Prices: As the primary raw material, the price of crude oil directly influences the cost of petrol and diesel.

Exchange Rate: India, being a major importer of crude oil, is affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate between the Indian rupee and the US dollar, which impacts fuel prices.

Taxes: Both central and state governments impose taxes on petrol and diesel. These taxes vary across states, affecting the final retail price for consumers.
