Crude oil prices steadied on Wednesday as industry data showed a draw in U.S. crude oil inventories after the market tumbled in the previous session on fears more aggressive U.S. interest rate hikes would hit demand. Brent crude futures for April gained 8 cents to $83.37 per barrel. US West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude futures lost 4 cents to $77.54 a barrel.
Public sector Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) including Bharat Petroleum Corporation Ltd (BPCL), Indian Oil Corporation Ltd (IOCL) and Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Ltd (HPCL) revise their prices daily in line with international benchmark prices and forex rates. Any changes in petrol and diesel costs are implemented from 6 am every day. Oil Minister Hardeep Singh Puri recently asked OMCs to cut the retail prices of petrol and diesel if the crude oil prices in the international market come down and also if OMCs under recovery come down. OMCs incurred a loss of Rs 21,200 crore on account of selling petrol and diesel below the cost price.
