Petrol Diesel Price Today: Fluctuating crude oil prices in the international market continue to affect fuel trends in India. Although global crude rates are witnessing constant ups and downs, petrol and diesel prices in India have mostly remained stable. For several weeks, consumers had expected fuel prices to drop, but recent market indicators suggest that price cuts are unlikely in the near future.
Global Crude Oil Update
In the international market, crude oil showed very slight movement.

- Brent crude rose by $0.02 (0.03%) to $63.77 per barrel.
