Oil marketing companies on Tuesday increased the price of petrol and diesel by 54 and 58 paise per litre respectively, the third such successive raise to cover for the rise in global crude prices.
The increase has been made under the dynamic pricing system for daily revision of fuel prices which OMCs resumed after over 83 days break during the lockdown period.
In the national capital, the retail price of both petrol and diesel had increased by 54 and 58 paise to Rs 73 and Rs 71.17 per litre respectively.
In other cities, the increase could vary depending on the tax structure on products.
IANS had published earlier that daily price revision may begin in June and retail prices of petrol and diesel could go up to Rs 5 a litre in phases. In three days it has already gone up by about Rs 1.80 per litre.
