State-run oil marketing companies, such as Indian Oil Corporation, review the domestic fuel prices on a daily basis and any revisions are implemented at the fuel stations with effect from 6 am.
The domestic fuel prices are determined broadly by the global crude oil and rupee-dollar forex rates.
Globally, oil rose about 1 per cent on Friday after attacks on two oil tankers in the Gulf of Oman this week raised concerns about potential supply disruptions, but prices remained on track for a weekly loss on fears that trade disputes will dent global oil demand, reported news agency Reuters.
Brent futures settled 1.1 per cent, higher at $62.01 a barrel, while US West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude futures rose 0.4 per cent, to close at $52.51.
