Earlier, Nayara had also increased petrol prices by ₹5 per litre and diesel by ₹3 per litre.
State-owned companies, including Indian Oil Corporation, Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited, and Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited, have not revised fuel prices since April 2022, despite the sector being deregulated over a decade ago.
The continued freeze in fuel prices has resulted in financial strain for public sector oil marketing companies. Losses are estimated to be around ₹18 per litre on petrol and ₹35 per litre on diesel.
