Indian Fuel Prices Stable Amid G7 Reserve Release and Middle East Export Recovery
Petrol, diesel, and CNG prices across major Indian cities remained largely unchanged on October 5 and 6. Brent crude prices fell slightly, influenced by the G7 nations' release of 100 million barrels from emergency reserves and a rebound in Middle Eastern oil exports. Despite geopolitical tensions, including attacks by Yemen's Houthis, supply concerns eased, stabilizing fuel costs. Private retailers like Nayara Energy have recently adjusted prices, but state-owned companies maintained steady rates amid fluctuating global crude prices.
