By Rajkamal

Saturday morning brings good news as fuel prices have been slashed yet again. The price of petrol is cut by 2.43 per litre and diesel by 3.60 per litre, effective midnight.

Fuel prices were cut earlier by Rs 2, but places like Delhi did not enjoy the benefit because the government hiked the VAT on fuel prices, while other places enjoyed the benefit.
