Petrol and diesel prices today — 28 Aug: Fuel rates in Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru as crude oil heads for weekly loss

Petrol and diesel prices remained unchanged in major Indian cities on Friday, 28 August. State-owned fuel retailers continue to prevent domestic consumers from feeling the impact of global price volatility and fluctuations in fuel rates. Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) last revised fuel rates on 25 May, and dynamic fuel pricing means rates vary daily at 6:00 AM.

In New Delhi, petrol costs ₹102.12 per litre and diesel costs ₹95.20 per litre. Oil prices are on track for a weekly loss, ending a two-week winning streak as Brent crude futures dropped 0.3% and WTI fell 0.3%. Both benchmarks are expected to end the week lower, with Brent down 5.3% and WTI down 4.3%.

US economic sanctions against Iran, including targeting Iranian trade partners, may be intensified. Meanwhile, Congress general secretary Randeep Surjewala accused the government of facilitating a sugar price scam, estimating that ₹36,000 crore would benefit hoarders and black-marketeers.
