  "account": "Petrol and diesel prices in major Indian cities remained unchanged on 8 August, despite Brent crude oil experiencing its third consecutive weekly decline. Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) continue to set fuel rates based on the last major revision on 25 May. The global benchmark, Brent crude, settled above $83 a barrel, while West Texas Intermediate crude fell to $77.06 a barrel. Oil prices were buoyed by optimism surrounding the Iran-Oman deal, which could restore millions of barrels of West Asian energy supply. However, the path to a durable deal remains unclear at this point. US President Donald Trump expressed confidence that fuel prices could decline as the conflict involving Iran drew closer to an end.",
  "summary": "Petrol and diesel prices in major Indian cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, and Kolkata remained unchanged today, 8 August, despite a decline in Brent crude oil prices. The Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) continue to set fuel rates based on the last major revision in May. The price stability is attributed to the optimistic sentiment in the market following reports of a potential Iran-Oman deal that could restore oil supplies through the Strait of Hormuz. US President Donald Trump expressed optimism about the talks and the potential decline in fuel prices. Meanwhile, gold prices reached a seven-week high, driven by a weaker US dollar and lower crude oil prices.",
