Petrol and diesel prices today, October 6: Check fuel cost in Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru
High-priority alert based on source significance and keyword relevance.
Context
What happened: State-owned oil marketing companies kept petrol and diesel rates unchanged at their 6:00 AM revision on Tuesday, October 6, despite pressure from higher crude and fuel costs tied to the US-Iran war.
Key
Why it matters: Nayara, India's largest private fuel retailer, was the first to pass higher international oil prices to consumers, while state-owned retailers held rates steady across major metros since June. Analysts cited resilient Middle East exports and the G7 reserve release for keeping prices in check, even as Houthi attacks on Saudi targets kept supply risks in focus.
