About diesel prices in Patna
Today's diesel rate in Patna
Diesel in Patna costs ₹98.80 a litre today, with diesel at ₹111.94 — a gap of ₹13.14/L. The rate has been in effect since 15 Jun 2026. Oil companies can revise prices every morning at 6 a.m., but they only move when global crude and the rupee shift, so Patna's rate often holds steady for several days.
Why Patna's price differs from other cities
The base refinery cost, central excise (₹15.80/L) and dealer commission (₹2.58/L) are the same across India. What makes Patna different is Bihar's VAT — about ₹17.33 a litre here — plus a little local freight. That is why a tankful in Patna can cost more or less than the same fuel in a neighbouring state.
