Oil marketing companies (OMCs), tasked with reviewing petrol and diesel prices on a daily basis, on Wednesday kept fuel rates unchanged across major cities, while minor changes were observed in case of individual places. In fact, petrol and diesel prices have stayed largely uniform since May 21 last year, when the previous pan-nation revision to the rates was made.

In India, OMCs such as Bharat Petroleum, Hindustan Petroleum, and Indian Oil, review the pricing and make changes, if required. The rates, whether revised or unchanged, are announced at 6am each day.
