Each day begins not just with the rays of the sun, but also with new prices for petrol and diesel—prices that directly impact the pockets of the common man. Every morning at 6:00 AM, the country’s Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) release updated rates. These rates are determined based on fluctuations in crude oil prices in the international market and the dollar-rupee exchange rate. There has been a sharp surge in crude oil prices globally. Let’s examine whether this surge has affected Indian consumers, and find out the current prices of petrol and diesel in your city today.

Surge in Crude Oil Prices

There has been a sharp rise in crude oil prices in the international market, driven by escalating tensions between the United States and Iran. The price of Brent crude has climbed by 3.30% to reach $116.91 per barrel—its highest level since April 29. Meanwhile, the price of U.S. crude (WTI) has also risen by 3.99%, reaching $103.44 per barrel. With global oil prices crossing the $116 mark, concerns regarding inflation may intensify. However, for Indian consumers, there is some relief: retail prices for petrol and diesel in the country remain stable. Despite the volatility in the international market, domestic fuel prices have remained unchanged.
