  "account": "Petrol and diesel prices in major Indian cities, including Delhi, Mumbai, and Bengaluru, remained mostly unchanged on Sunday, 30 August, despite state-run Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) revising fuel rates daily at 6:00 AM. The fuel rates have stayed stable for the past three months, largely unaffected by fluctuations in global energy prices, primarily due to the US-Iran war and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz shipping route.\n\nThe last significant fuel price revision occurred on 25 May, when petrol and diesel prices were increased by ₹2.7 and ₹2.8 per litre, respectively. On Friday, oil prices experienced a decline, marking their first weekly drop in three weeks. Brent crude, the global benchmark, settled at $89.31 per barrel, down 0.43% or 39 cents, as traders assessed Kevin Warsh's inaugural speech as chairman of the Fed and rumors of a potential agreement on shipping through the Hormuz, a critical waterway for global energy supplies. West Texas Intermediate crude futures also saw a decline of 0.16%, or 13 cents, settling at $83.40 per barrel.",
  "summary": "Petrol and diesel prices remained stable on 30 August. Although prices increased earlier in May, they have not fluctuated significantly in the last three months.",
