Petrol rates in the nation are revised and implemented with effect from 6 AM every day. The state-run oil marketing companies — Indian Oil Corporation (IOC), Bharat Petroleum, and Hindustan Petroleum — align the rates of domestic fuel with that of global crude oil prices and make changes in the new petrol rates. The rates vary by rupee in different petrol stations based on the oil marketing companies across States.

A commuter Sathyapriya from Hyderabad stated that when she filled petrol in Miyapur the rate was Rs 104. When she filled petrol the next day in a different gas station at Ameerpet, the price was Rs 101. Either way, the commuters are hard hit with the rise in fuel prices and with the lockdown lifted in Telangana and most of the people getting back to work has led to widespread discontent in the fuel rates.
