Hi,
Whenever price of petrol is increased, there will be increase in price of diesel also.However there will always be a gap between price of petrol and diesel. Hence If usage is then going for petrol version would be better for a given price range as you will have to invest extra for a diesel model.

I can understand your attraction towards diesel vehicles. They have a lot going for them. When stuck in traffic, you need not turn off the engine as while idling, the diesel engine is running practically on pure air. Besides this the main advantage will be experienced when climbing ghats or other hills like on your way to Amby valley. Such climb is child's play for diesel engines. The only downside is a little extra clatter when idling and a 50K extra sticker price. If you can handle these two, the diesel engine is a clear winner. Although Swift diesel is good, the other ones are the Micra 1.5 diesel and the forthcoming Etios Liva 1.4 diesel.
