About petrol prices in Kolkata
Today's petrol rate in Kolkata
Petrol in Kolkata costs ₹112.38 a litre today, with diesel at ₹99.09 — a gap of ₹13.29/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 Kolkata's rate often holds steady for several days.
Why Kolkata's price differs from other cities
The base refinery cost, central excise (₹19.90/L) and dealer commission (₹3.77/L) are the same across India. What makes Kolkata different is West Bengal's VAT — about ₹26.70 a litre here — plus a little local freight. That is why a tankful in Kolkata can cost more or less than the same fuel in a neighbouring state.
What a full tank costs in Kolkata
