Since 2017, petrol and diesel prices are revised daily at 6 am by state-run oil marketing companies (OMCs) like Indian Oil, Hindustan Petroleum and Bharat Petroleum changed daily by the oil companies. Earlier, the fuel prices were revised every 15 days.

Oil was little changed in early trade on Monday, as Russia's plans to deepen oil supply cuts continued to support prices, while increasing global inflation risks and rising crude inventories in the United States weighed. Oil prices have fallen by about a sixth in the year since February 24, 2022, when Russian troops first marched into Ukraine.
