There is some good news amid the shortage of LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas). Despite the surge in crude oil prices, India’s oil marketing companies have not increased the rates of petrol and diesel today. According to the rates released at 6 am today, the retail price of petrol at Indian Oil pumps in Delhi is ₹94.77 and diesel is ₹87.67 per liter. Let us tell you that in March 2024, the prices of petrol and diesel were reduced by ₹2 per liter. There has been no change since then.
Crude oil prices are once again on the rise. Brent crude is once again approaching $100 per barrel. According to Bloomberg, Brent crude rose more than 6 percent this morning to reach $97.69. Meanwhile, WTI also rose nearly 6 percent to $92.41. It’s worth noting that every $1 increase in crude oil adds approximately $2 billion to India’s import bill annually.
