Good news for consumers as Nayara Energy slashes petrol and diesel prices

LUCKNOW: As crude oil prices in the global market cool down, Nayara Energy on Wednesday slashed its petrol and diesel rates by Rs 5 and ₹3 per litre, respectively, across its several retail outlets in the country.

Paras Mani Yadav, the owner of a Nayara petrol pump in Lucknow, confirmed the development. He explained that while the rates of government Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) were already lower, Nayara — as a private sector company — had previously been charging Rs 5 more per litre for petrol and Rs 3 more per litre for diesel. However, with the latest corporate revision, those premiums have been eliminated.

“The rates of our government OMCs were already lower, but because we are in the private sector, our rates were ₹5 higher on petrol and ₹3 higher on diesel. However, since the company has revised the rates again, petrol has now become ₹5 cheaper and diesel has become ₹3 cheaper. This price cut has already come into effect starting today, July 1, 2026,” Yadav said.

The price cut has brought immediate relief to consumers at the pumps. “Thank you very much for the 5-rupee price drop at Nayara petrol pumps. This has brought us a lot of relief and convenience. Thank you to the Nayara company for this,” a local consumer said while refuelling.

Another motorist echoed the sentiment, saying, “At Nayara petrol pumps, diesel has become 3 rupees cheaper, and petrol has become 5 rupees cheaper. This has brought us a lot of relief.”
