On April 13, 2026, petrol and diesel prices in India were stable, with petrol priced at ₹94.72 per liter in New Delhi and diesel at ₹87.62 per liter. This stability comes amid significant volatility in global oil markets due to ongoing geopolitical tensions in West Asia, particularly involving Iran and Israel. The Indian government and oil marketing companies (OMCs) are absorbing some of the price fluctuations to protect consumers from sudden price shocks. Despite the crisis, which has raised concerns over oil shipment disruptions through the Strait of Hormuz, Indian authorities have assured that retail prices will remain steady for the foreseeable future, helping to alleviate inflationary pressures. Consumers can check fuel prices through SMS services provided by major oil companies, ensuring they stay informed without needing to visit fuel stations. However, the potential for future price hikes remains, especially if global crude prices continue to rise and the Indian rupee weakens.
