Petrol-Diesel Price: After the reedgestiment in the original price of the fuel of oil marketing companies, there has been a slight increase in the prices of petrol and diesel in Kolkata. In Kolkata, the price of petrol is now Rs 105.41 per liter and diesel is priced at Rs 92.02 per liter. Prominent oil marketing company official said, “The price of petrol has increased by 40 paise per liter. While diesel has become expensive by 20 paise per liter. However, in contrast, Patna saw a decline of 60 paise per liter in the price of diesel. While fuel prices remained unchanged in other eastern states.
Review takes place from time to time
The original price (before adding central and state taxes serve as a benchmark determined by the oil marketing companies) is periodically reviewed and adjusted based on various operations and logical factors. Although such changes are usually modest, they directly affect the retail price of fuel paid by consumers. This latest growth has occurred at a time when global crude oil prices have been relatively stable and consumer inflation remains a matter of concern.
Crude oil prices are at the lower level
Crude oil prices have been at the lower level for a long time. Due to this, government oil companies have not had to increase the prices of petrol and diesel. On Tuesday afternoon, crude oil was seen trading at $ 62.05 per barrel with an increase of $ 0.15 per cent or $ 0.11 per barrel. At the same time, Brent Oil appeared trading at $ 65.02 a barrel with a gain of 0.09 per cent or $ 0.06 per barrel.
