Petrol prices May 27, 2026: Delhi at ₹102.12/L

Prices update: what changed on May 27, 2026

Fuel prices updated on May 27, 2026 show petrol staying above the ₹100 per litre mark in several major Indian cities. The data lists petrol in New Delhi at ₹102.12 per litre and diesel at ₹95.20 per litre. Mumbai’s petrol is shown at ₹111.21 per litre with diesel at ₹97.83 per litre. The update also highlights that petrol has crossed ₹110 per litre in Mumbai and is above ₹100 per litre in cities such as Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru and Hyderabad. Alongside metro prices, the dataset includes state-wise petrol rates and a longer city or district list with local prices. Several lines in the source repeat the same statement about petrol crossing ₹100 in multiple cities, reinforcing the key takeaway. The numbers matter for households and transport-intensive businesses because they affect day-to-day operating costs.

Delhi and Mumbai: the latest city-level numbers

The update explicitly notes that petrol in New Delhi has crossed the ₹100 mark and is priced at ₹102.12 per litre. Diesel in Delhi is listed at ₹95.20 per litre. In Mumbai, petrol is listed at ₹111.21 per litre, with diesel at ₹97.83 per litre. The text also references a “fourth hike in a matter of 48 hours,” and states that petrol is “now costing 111 rupees per liter in Mumbai,” aligning broadly with the ₹111.21 per litre figure shown in the city table. Taken together, these points frame the May 27 update as part of a short burst of price increases. While the dataset does not specify the size of each hike, the repeated mention of the threshold crossings indicates that the move has been significant in public-facing terms.

Key metro prices (May 27): petrol and diesel

The source provides a consolidated table of fuel prices in key cities for May 27, covering both petrol and diesel.

These figures show petrol above ₹108 per litre across the listed metros except Delhi, which is still above ₹100. Diesel ranges from ₹95.20 per litre in Delhi to ₹103.82 per litre in Hyderabad in the same table.

State-level petrol snapshot: where prices are highest and lowest

The update includes a state and union territory table for petrol prices (with “Change” shown as 0.00 across entries in the provided portion). Among the listed regions, Andhra Pradesh shows petrol at ₹117.78 per litre, which is the highest value in that state-level list. Telangana is listed at ₹115.29 per litre, Kerala at ₹115.09 per litre, and Madhya Pradesh at ₹114.97 per litre. On the lower end of the same table, Andaman and Nicobar is listed at ₹88.66 per litre. Delhi is listed at ₹102.12 per litre at the state or UT level as well, matching the city figure for New Delhi in the key cities table. These differences across states are visible even within the partial snapshot and underline how retail fuel prices can vary widely by location.

District-level data: examples from the longer list

Beyond states and major metros, the dataset also includes a city or district-level list with petrol prices and “Change” values shown as 0.00 for the entries displayed. Examples include Alipurduar at ₹114.28 per litre, Alirajpur at ₹116.03 per litre, Almora at ₹102.16 per litre, and Alwar at ₹113.87 per litre. In the “B” section shown, Banda is listed at ₹102.72 per litre, Bangalore at ₹110.89 per litre, Bangalore Rural at ₹110.53 per litre, Banka at ₹114.71 per litre, and Bankura at ₹113.91 per litre. This granular data highlights that even within a state, the consumer price can differ by district.

Popular cities snapshot: petrol, diesel and CNG where listed

A separate section lists “Today’s Fuel Prices in Popular Cities” for petrol, diesel and CNG. Not every fuel type is shown for every city in the excerpt, but the data provides additional checkpoints for commonly searched locations.

This table also shows small variations versus the “key cities” table for some petrol values (for example, Mumbai petrol appears as ₹111.18 here versus ₹111.21 in the metro table). The excerpt does not provide an explanation for these differences, but both sets of numbers point in the same direction on price levels.

A separate May 26 snapshot also appears in the data

The text also includes a line stating: “As of today May 26, 2026 petrol prices range from 94.77 per litre in Delhi to 103.54 per litre in Mumbai, 105.45 per litre in Kolkata, 100.84 per litre in Chennai, 102.96 per litre in Bengaluru and 107.46 per litre in Hyderabad.” This is presented as a separate dated snapshot within the same content block. Read alongside the May 27 metro table, it indicates that the dataset is capturing multiple updates across consecutive days. The content does not reconcile the two sets of prices or detail the calculation method, but it clearly labels the May 26 line and the May 27 tables.

Why the ₹100 and ₹110 thresholds matter for consumers

The dataset repeatedly notes that petrol has moved above ₹100 per litre in multiple cities, and above ₹110 per litre in Mumbai. For consumers, these round-number thresholds tend to draw attention because they are easy to track and compare. Diesel levels also remain close to or near ₹100 per litre in several listed metros, with Chennai diesel at ₹99.98 and Kolkata diesel at ₹99.82 in the May 27 table. Even where the “Change” column shows 0.00 in parts of the state and district lists, the narrative text refers to a hike and a series of increases over 48 hours. The practical implication is that commuting and commercial transport costs can rise, particularly in cities where both petrol and diesel are elevated.

Market impact: what higher pump prices signal

For markets, day-to-day retail fuel prices are closely watched because they can influence transport costs and consumer budgets. The May 27 data shows petrol above ₹110 per litre in Mumbai and Bengaluru, and above ₹115 per litre in Hyderabad in the key cities table. Such levels can shape expectations around operating expenses for logistics-heavy sectors and discretionary spending patterns for households. The dataset does not provide company-level financials or stock moves, so any linkage to listed oil marketing companies or inflation prints cannot be quantified here. Still, the breadth of the move across major cities and multiple states makes the update relevant for investors tracking consumption-linked themes and cost pressures.

What to watch next

The immediate point to track is whether subsequent daily updates continue to show upward revisions or stabilisation, especially in the large metros listed. The data also suggests that readers should track both city-level and district-level prices because local differences are visible. For those using CNG, the popular-cities table provides a separate set of reference prices, including New Delhi at ₹77.09 per kg and Mumbai at ₹81 per kg. The next official update to these published tables will clarify whether May 27’s levels hold or shift further.
