Petrol-Diesel Rate Today on June 13: The prices of petrol and diesel are fluctuating amid the ongoing conflict in Iran and increasing tension around the Strait of Hormuz. Meanwhile, according to a government order, the government has banned industrial, commercial and institutional users from purchasing petrol and diesel from petrol pumps and has asked them to purchase the fuel required from bulk sales points.

According to the report of news agency PTI, these restrictions will remain in force for 90 days. The move came after bulk customers started buying fuel from petrol pumps due to price differentials, leading to an unusual increase in demand for fuel, especially diesel, in some areas. The price of diesel at petrol pumps in Delhi is Rs 95.20 per liter, while its price in wholesale sale is Rs 134.50.

fuel is becoming expensive

Due to rising prices of crude oil globally, government retailers have started passing on the burden of increased costs to customers to recover some part of their huge losses. Under this, on May 25, Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) increased the prices of both petrol and diesel by more than Rs 2.50 per liter, taking a total increase of Rs 7.50 per liter since May 15. The prices of petrol and diesel in India are at their highest level in the last 4 years. Over the past two years, fuel prices have remained mostly stable except for a cut of Rs 2 per liter in March 2024.

Petrol will be cheaper in Mumbai tomorrow
