Jet fuel price hiked by 2% to all-time high
Jet fuel prices on Friday were hiked by 2 per cent – the seventh straight increase this year – to an all-time high, reflecting a surge in global energy prices.
Aviation turbine fuel (ATF) – the fuel that helps aeroplanes fly – was hiked by ₹2,258.54 per kilolitre, or 2 per cent, to ₹1,12,924.83 per kl in the national capital, according to a price notification by state-owned fuel retailers.
