Petrol, diesel rates on 14 Oct: Delhi holds at ₹102.12 and ₹95.20

Delhi petrol and diesel prices were unchanged on 14 Oct 2026 at ₹102.12 and ₹95.20 per litre, respectively, according to same-day Times of India and Economic Times/Business Today listings. The update is a city snapshot, not a nationwide price hike: rates vary by state taxes, freight, outlet and fuel type, so drivers should check the rate for the place and time of purchase.

The latest checked CNG listing for Delhi-NCR was ₹86.98 per kg on 13 Oct, according to separate listings reviewed for this update. That figure should be treated as the latest available reference, not as proof of a new 14 Oct CNG revision.

Key takeaways

Delhi petrol was ₹102.12 per litre on 14 Oct 2026, unchanged from the previous day in same-day listings.
Delhi diesel was ₹95.20 per litre on 14 Oct 2026, also unchanged from 13 Oct.
Delhi-NCR CNG was last listed at ₹86.98 per kg in the checked 13 Oct listings; verify the current city record and pump display before refuelling.
IndianOil says petrol and diesel price changes take effect at 6 am daily, while prices can vary between locations and outlets.

14 October reference rates

The table separates the confirmed 14 Oct Delhi petrol and diesel snapshot from the CNG figure whose latest checked timestamp was 13 Oct. This distinction matters because a tracker can refresh one fuel or city before another.

Fuel	Delhi reference rate	Date and movement	Independent checks
Petrol	₹102.12 per litre	14 Oct 2026; unchanged from 13 Oct	Times of India; Economic Times
Diesel	₹95.20 per litre	14 Oct 2026; unchanged from 13 Oct	Times of India; Business Today
CNG	₹86.98 per kg	Latest checked listing dated 13 Oct; recheck for 14 Oct	V3Cars; Mint

These are reference rates for the stated city and date, not a promise that every pump will display an identical amount at every moment. The IndianOil price-information page itself says daily changes are effected at 6 am and that indicative prices can vary by outlet within a city or town.

What changed — and what did not

The 14 Oct update does not establish a new all-India petrol or diesel price hike. Delhi's two main road fuels held at the same values shown for 13 Oct in the same-day listings checked. A driver in another state may still see a different number, or a different day-on-day movement, because the final retail price includes local taxes and distribution costs.

CNG needs separate treatment. City gas distributors set CNG prices independently of petrol and diesel, and the checked sources do not establish a fresh nationwide CNG revision on 14 Oct. Drivers using CNG should therefore check the latest city entry rather than infer a change from petrol or diesel movements.

What a steady rate means for a fill-up

At the cited 14 Oct Delhi rates, a 40-litre petrol fill would cost ₹4,084.80 before any outlet-level difference. A 50-litre diesel fill would cost ₹4,760. These are simple calculations from the published per-litre rates, not a recommended tank size or a forecast of future prices.

For a practical monthly example, a car covering 800 km at an assumed 16 km per litre would use about 50 litres. At ₹102.12 per litre, the petrol portion of that month’s running cost would be about ₹5,106. Actual consumption will change with traffic, tyre pressure, load, driving style and the vehicle’s real-world efficiency.

Why fuel prices differ between cities

Petrol and diesel do not have one national pump price. State VAT and other local levies, freight, dealer margins and the sales area attached to a particular outlet all influence the final amount. That is why a Delhi rate should not be carried into a trip budget for Mumbai, Bengaluru, Kolkata or a smaller town.

The timestamp is just as important as the number. A city page carrying yesterday’s record may still be useful for comparison, but it should not be described as a confirmed current rate. This is also why the 13 Oct CNG figure is labelled as the latest checked listing rather than a confirmed 14 Oct price.

What drivers should check before refuelling

Match the fuel type, city and date. Petrol, diesel and CNG are separate price lines.
For a wider comparison, use the city-wise petrol price list and the corresponding diesel or CNG city pages, then read the latest-update date.
Compare the online reference with the pump’s displayed rate before authorising a large fill, especially when a price page has an older timestamp.
For an inter-city journey, note the likely refuelling stops instead of applying one metro rate to the whole route.

Use the rate in your trip budget

A daily city rate becomes more useful when it is combined with actual distance and mileage. The fuel-cost calculator can turn the current rate into a trip or monthly estimate without assuming that every vehicle consumes the same amount.

For a longer drive, the road-trip planner can keep the route, stops and fuel assumptions together. Recheck the city rate before departure because the next daily price update may apply from 6 am.

What to watch next

The next confirmed change will be the next daily petrol and diesel review, while CNG updates will continue to depend on city gas distributors. Until a source confirms a broader revision, the responsible reading of 14 Oct is that Delhi petrol and diesel were steady, not that fuel prices were frozen across India.

Reader takeaway: Delhi drivers had a stable petrol and diesel reference rate on 14 Oct, but the number to use for a trip is the dated rate for the city and fuel type where the vehicle will actually refuel.
