What Happened
On August 6, oil marketing companies in India released the daily retail prices for petrol and diesel. The prices remained steady in most cities across the country, with consumers paying the same rates as they did on August 5. Specific rates were reported for major cities, including Delhi, Mumbai, and Kolkata, where prices continue to vary due to differences in state-level value added tax and local levies.
The stability in domestic fuel prices occurred despite a recent decline in the price of Brent crude oil. This global market shift was attributed to optimism surrounding a potential deal between the United States and Iran. While international crude prices have fluctuated, retail fuel rates in India have not seen a corresponding adjustment.
