Currently, oil marketing companies such as state-run Indian Oil Corp. review the domestic prices of petrol and diesel on a daily basis, and any changes—determined broadly by the global crude oil prices and the foreign exchange rates—are effected at the fuel stations at 6:00 a.m.
The price revisions method, or the dynamic fuel price methodology, considers several factors such as international crude prices, the exchange rate of the rupee against the dollar, actual and expected demand, and the trade flow in global crude markets.
On Monday, oil continued to remain steady after its biggest gain in almost two weeks, as US President Donald Trump’s announcement of a trade accord with Vietnam boosted optimism further agreements will be made by next week’s cutoff.

Brent dipped to $67.66 a barrel, with a decline of 0.94%, after sliding 12% two weeks ago. While West Texas Intermediate for August traded near $65.85, with a loss of 1.72%, Bloomberg reported.
