Petrol prices on upswing, poised to breach all-time high in Delhi
Auto fuel prices are on the upswing in the country, with pump price of petrol all set to breach an all-time high soon in Delhi.
The oil marketing companies (OMCs) continued to raise fuel prices, hiking the retail price of petrol by 28 paise per litre on Sunday to Rs 83.41 per litre in Delhi. Similarly, diesel prices also increased by 29 paise to Rs 73.61 per litre.
The current price of petrol in Delhi is nearly 60 paise short of breaching the all- time high of Rs 84 per litre recorded in October 2018.
Given the daily price increases, the milestone may be achieved early next week.
