Factors Determining Prices in India
It is worth noting that several factors influence the retail prices of petrol and diesel in India. The first is the cost of crude oil. Since petrol and diesel are produced from crude oil, a rise in global crude oil benchmark prices significantly increases the operational costs for oil refineries.
Additionally, the value of the Indian Rupee against the US Dollar plays a role. India imports the majority of its crude oil requirements from abroad, and these imports are paid for in US dollars.
