Crude oil prices significantly influence petrol and diesel costs, as these fuels are derived from crude oil. India’s position as one of the largest importers of crude oil means that domestic fuel prices are closely linked to the exchange rate between the Indian rupee and the US dollar.
Furthermore, the final fuel price is heavily affected by taxes imposed by both the central and state governments, which vary across different states.
