Following the reduction, the new petrol price has been fixed at <strong>Rs. 327.62 per litre<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The price of <strong>High-Speed Diesel (HSD)<\/strong> has also been reduced by <strong>Rs. 1.50 per litre<\/strong>. The new price of high-speed diesel has been set at <strong>Rs. 380.86 per litre<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Meanwhile, the government has increased the <strong>petroleum levy on high-speed diesel by 81 paisa per litre<\/strong>. The levy has been raised from <strong>Rs. 73.47 to Rs. 74.28 per litre<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The petroleum levy on petrol, however, has remained unchanged at <strong>Rs. 80 per litre<\/strong>, according to the announcement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The latest reduction is expected to provide some relief to motorists and transport
