Where the numbers come from

Everything here is read from PPAC’s table of petrol and diesel prices in the metro cities. A footnote on the table says the prices are Indian Oil Corporation’s retail selling prices, and that a daily change applies from 6:00 AM. The date in each row is PPAC’s Date of Revision, copied as printed. The status page shows how current the stored data is.
