Today, on the morning of June 18, 2025, the country’s well-known oil companies – Indian Oil, Bharat Petroleum, and Hindustan Petroleum – have released new prices of petrol and diesel across the country. The good news is that there has been no change in prices even today, which has neither given relief to the drivers nor has there been any new burden. This stability has come at a time when the prices of crude oil in the international market remain volatile.

How are petrol and diesel prices determined
Fuel prices in India depend on crude oil prices in the international market and the dollar-rupee exchange rate. When crude oil prices rise, it directly affects domestic petrol and diesel rates. India imports a large part of its requirement, so global market fluctuations directly affect Indian consumers.
Why is a daily change in prices necessary
Under the daily pricing policy, oil companies implement new rates for petrol and diesel every morning after 6 am. This system enables the consumer to get the correct price in real-time and maintains transparency in the entire process. This also helps oil companies to adjust immediately to changes in the international market.
What can change next
Even though prices are stable today, given the uncertainty of crude oil in the international market and the position of the dollar, fluctuations in petrol and diesel prices are possible in the coming days. Global geopolitical events, decisions of oil-producing countries, and the performance of the rupee against the dollar, all these factors can affect future prices.
What is the message for consumers
If you are planning a trip somewhere, today is a convenient day for you as prices are stable. It is very important to keep an eye on the daily rates of petrol and diesel to keep your budget right. To know the latest rates of your city, you can use the government website or the official mobile apps of Indian Oil, Bharat Petroleum, and HPCL. This will help you make the right decision at the right time.
