The aviation fuel is now 5.4 to 6 percent costlier compared to September across New Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata and Chennai, according to prices updated by state-run oil refiner and marketer Indian Oil Corporation Ltd. on its website. The hike is expected to impact airlines’ revenue in the quarter ending December as fuel costs eat up about a third of their sales.

- Delhi: Rs 53,045 (up 6 percent over September)
