The petrol price in Bhavnagar changes due to several global and local cost components. Since the city is located along the Gulf of Khambhat, fuel movement and logistics also play a role. Here are the major factors:
International crude oil prices form the base cost. When crude becomes expensive, the petrol rate in Bhavnagar also rises. Global demand, geopolitical instability, Organisation of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) decisions, and currency exchange fluctuations influence pricing.
Petrol reaches Bhavnagar after refining and transportation. Due to its coastal and port-based economy, logistical costs may differ slightly from inland cities. Refinery charges, security margins, and internal distribution costs impact the final retail price.
Petrol is not subject to GST. Instead, the final price in Bhavnagar is determined by the following components:
| Component | Applies in Bhavnagar | Impact |
|---|---|---|
Excise duty (Central) |
Yes |
Major share |
State VAT |
Yes |
Varies by state, directly affecting price |
Dealer commission |
Yes |
Smaller but impactful |
Any changes to the State VAT can directly influence the petrol price in Bhavnagar.
Fuel station operators add dealer commissions, which can vary based on factors such as operational expenses, compliance requirements, and market demand.
Since oil is traded in USD, fluctuations in the exchange rate can impact the cost of importing crude oil. If the Indian Rupee weakens against the dollar, it becomes more expensive to import crude, leading to a rise in the petrol price in Bhavnagar.
The petrol price in Bhavnagar is revised daily at 6 AM. This daily pricing model reflects live global crude prices and currency movement. Whether you purchase fuel in the morning or evening, the price remains the same for the day unless there is an exceptional revision.

Even small rises can affect household planning, especially for frequent travellers.
If you travel 20–30 km daily, even a ₹2 per litre difference can change your monthly cost
Transport-based business owners feel the impact more due to higher operational dependence
