Petrol, diesel prices raised by Rs 3 per litre after four-year hiatus

Petrol and diesel prices were increased by Rs 3 per litre on Friday as state-owned oil marketing companies resumed fuel price revisions after a record four-year gap.

In the national capital, petrol prices rose to Rs 97.77 per litre from Rs 94.77, while diesel prices increased to Rs 90.67 per litre from Rs 87.67, according to industry sources.

The hike is said to account for only a fraction of the increase required to offset the sharp rise in global energy prices following the escalation of the West Asia conflict.
