Petrol price in Hamirpur changes due to several factors. These factors are the same as in most Indian cities.

• Global crude oil prices: The price of crude oil in the international market directly affects the petrol price in Hamirpur. If global prices rise, local prices rise too.​

• Rupee to dollar exchange rate: India imports most of its crude oil. If the rupee weakens against the US dollar, petrol becomes costlier.​

• Taxes: Central and state governments charge excise duty and Value Added Tax (VAT). Any change in these taxes affects the final petrol price in Hamirpur.​

• Dealer commission: Petrol station owners get a small commission for selling each Litre. This is included in the final price.​

• Transportation costs: Fuel is moved from refineries to Hamirpur by trucks or rail. Distance and road conditions add to the cost.​

• Government policies: Changes in subsidy or deregulation of fuel prices also impact the rate.​

• Seasonal demand: Festivals and local events can increase demand, causing temporary price hikes.​

• Local supply issues: Shortages or disruptions in supply chains can push prices up for a few days.​

All these factors combine to determine the petrol price in Hamirpur on any given day.​
