Rising global crude oil prices are adding to the pressure on India’s oil marketing companies, even as petrol and diesel prices remain unchanged across most major cities. Brent crude crossed $100 a barrel again on Wednesday, with fresh concerns over supply disruptions following attacks in Saudi Arabia and a storm threatening oil production in the US Gulf. ICRA has flagged negative petrol and diesel marketing margins for OMCs.
With international oil prices staying elevated, OMCs continue to face pressure on their marketing margins as domestic retail fuel rates remain largely unchanged. Prolonged high crude prices could increase India’s oil import bill and add to the pressure on fuel retailers in the weeks ahead.
