Fuel prices today, 13 November: Check how much petrol, diesel cost in your city on Friday — Full list
Petrol and diesel prices remained unchanged across major Indian cities on November 13, even as global crude oil rates rose amid tensions between the US and Iran. Meanwhile, attacks on Russian refineries by Ukrainian drones added to concerns over global fuel supplies.
On November 13, fuel prices in India remained unchanged across major cities such as New Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, and Kolkata, despite the Central government scrapping the additional excise duty on petrol exports. The stability in fuel rates can be attributed to domestic fuel retailers maintaining steady pump prices in the face of rising global oil prices due to tensions in the Middle East.
Oil prices rose on Thursday after US President Donald Trump indicated that the United States might not agree to a deal with Iran, which led to a 3.3% increase in Brent crude to nearly $96 a barrel. However, oil prices had initially fallen earlier on Thursday due to indications that Persian Gulf exports were holding up, with Saudi Arabia and Iraq reporting increased production.
Despite the global oil supply concerns, domestic factors continue to influence fuel prices in India. Local taxes, transportation costs, and other region-specific charges vary across states and cities. In addition, the war in Iran has affected diesel supplies, forcing Moscow to halt fuel exports. Meanwhile, sanctions and diplomatic disagreements between Washington and Tehran on issues such as Iran's nuclear program, frozen assets, and the US naval blockade persist, further complicating the global oil market scenario.
