Petrol and diesel prices were cut, the second time this month, by Rs 2 per litre from Monday-Tuesday midnight.
The price cut will vary from state to state because of difference in the rate of local taxes.
The rate reduction has come as international crude prices are trading at a five-year low. Petrol in Delhi will now sell at Rs 61.33 per litre from the earlier Rs 63.33 while in Mumbai it will be Rs 68.86 from the earlier Rs 70.95.
