As of April 5, 2026, petrol and diesel prices in India remain stable, with petrol priced at ₹94.72 per litre in New Delhi and diesel at ₹87.62 per litre. This stability comes despite significant global crude oil volatility, particularly due to ongoing geopolitical tensions in West Asia involving Iran, Israel, and the United States. Brent crude oil prices are hovering around $109 per barrel, raising concerns about potential supply disruptions through the Strait of Hormuz, a critical shipping route for global oil. Indian authorities have indicated that retail fuel prices are expected to remain stable in the near term, with oil marketing companies absorbing some of the market volatility to prevent sudden price increases for consumers. However, premium fuel prices have seen revisions, with XP100 petrol now costing ₹160 per litre, reflecting adjustments due to rising global oil costs. Consumers can easily check the latest fuel prices in their city through SMS services offered by oil marketing companies.
