State-run oil refiners such as Indian Oil Corp, Bharat Petroleum, and Hindustan Petroleum revise the fuel rates on a daily basis, by taking into account the crude oil prices in the international markets, and the rupee-dollar exchange rates. Any changes in fuel prices are implemented with effect from 6 am every day.
India imports 85 per cent of its crude oil needs, and the domestic fuel rates are linked to international rates.
Globally, oil prices rose about 1 per cent in early trade today. Brent crude futures jumped $1.08, or 0.9 per cent, to $116.17 a barrel. U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude futures climbed $1.07, or 1 per cent, to $110.64 a barrel.
