Why Fuel Prices Vary

Domestic petrol and diesel prices are influenced by several factors beyond international crude oil movements. These include the rupee-dollar exchange rate, refining costs, taxes and dealer margins, among other considerations. Consequently, retail fuel prices differ from one state and city to another.

The latest stability comes despite easing global supply concerns. Expectations of improved oil flows through the Strait of Hormuz, along with diplomatic efforts involving Iran and Oman, have helped reduce immediate fears of prolonged supply disruptions.
