Petrol in Delhi now costs ₹97.01 per litre as against ₹96.21 previously while diesel rate has gone up from ₹87.47 per litre to ₹88.27
India, the world’s third biggest oil importer and consumer, ships in about 85% of its oil needs from overseas markets, news agency Reuters reported.
India’s local diesel and petrol prices are linked to international prices of the two fuels, which directionally follow increases in crude oil prices.
