Petrol price hiked by 64 paise; diesel sees reduction of Rs 1.35 per litre

16 Jun 2015 Evaluate

For a third consecutive time, petrol price has been hiked by 64 paise a litre, but diesel prices were cut by Rs 1.35 per litre in line with trend in global oil rates. Prices were last time hiked by Rs 3.13 a litre and diesel by Rs 2.71 per litre on May 16. However, on June 1, companies skipped raising rates. The State-owned fuel retailers have said that since last price change, there has been an increase in international prices of petrol while international prices of diesel have shown a downward trend. On the same time Indian rupee-US dollar exchange rate has depreciated during the period that led to alignment with international prices and adjustment for foreign exchange rates.

The last three hikes in petrol rates have wiped away more than one-third of the gains that had accrued to consumers when global rates began to fall in August. In case of diesel, the reduction has halted two consecutive increases during last month and partly restored the gains taken away in May.

Petrol in Delhi will cost Rs 66.93 per litre instead of Rs 66.29 at present. A litre of diesel will cost Rs 50.93 per litre as opposed to Rs 52.28. Petrol prices have been cumulatively cut by Rs 17.11 a litre in 10 reductions between August and February and diesel by Rs 12.96 a litre in six cuts between October and February.

PSU oil marketing companies Indian Oil Corporation (IOC), Bharat Petroleum Corp (BPCL) and Hindustan Petroleum Corp (HPCL) revise petrol and diesel prices on 1st and 16th of every month based on average imported cost and rupee-dollar exchange rate in the previous fortnight.
