Will prices increase after the elections?

Meanwhile, there is also a ‘good news’ for the people of the country. In fact, the central government said on Tuesday that it has no intention of increasing the prices of petrol and diesel. The government has rejected speculations that prices may increase after voting ends in West Bengal on April 29.

Retail petrol and diesel prices have remained unchanged for the fourth consecutive year, while crude oil prices have increased by more than 50 percent in the last two months due to the ongoing conflict in West Asia.

The increasing difference between the cost of raw materials and the selling price at the pump is causing huge losses to government oil companies. According to some estimates, they are incurring a loss of around Rs 2400 crore every day. Due to this, speculations have intensified that prices may increase soon after the end of assembly elections in Tamil Nadu, West Bengal, Assam, Kerala and Puducherry on Wednesday.

Turmoil in the global fuel market

This stagnation in retail fuel prices has come despite a rapid increase in the global crude benchmark. According to Reuters, Brent crude is trading above $ 106 per barrel, while US crude is around $ 95. Last week, the biggest weekly increase has been recorded in both of them since the start of the war.

The surge is fueled by stalled peace talks between the US and Iran and continuing blockages in the Strait of Hormuz – a vital global oil transport route that carries about a fifth of the world’s oil flows. There is a shortage in the market due to limited movement of tankers and shortage in supply.
