Petrol price down 1.69 paise, diesel ₹2.52 this month
NEW DELHI: Amid a slump in crude oil rates, the price of petrol has fallen by 1.69 paise per litre and that of diesel by ₹2.52 per litre so far this month. Petrol and diesel prices were, however, left unchanged today.
Crude has entered into bear market territory in June, dropping more than 20% from an April peak as tensions escalate between the US and China, the world’s two largest energy consumers.
Petrol price had dropped by 6 paise across the four metropolitan cities in India yesterday. It was the fourth consecutive day of decline.
