NEW DELHI : As a key meeting of OPEC and its allies begin from tomorrow to decide on crude oil production cuts, state-run fuel retailers in India have chosen not to increase or decrease the prices of petrol and diesel for the third consecutive day today.
In New Delhi, a litre of petrol is now retailing at ₹74.91 and diesel ₹65.78. In Mumbai, a litre of petrol costs ₹80.59 and diesel ₹69. If you are in Bengaluru, you pay ₹77.50 for petrol and ₹68.02 for diesel.
With crude oil rates rising since early October over hopes related to US-China trade deal, petrol price is already at its highest level this year. In October alone, petrol rate has spiked by around ₹2 a litre. Diesel rates have, however, been stagnant during the period.
