Prices of fuel had been on a freeze since November 4 ahead of the Assembly elections in states like Uttar Pradesh and Punjab — a period during which the cost of raw material (crude oil) soared by USD 30 per barrel. Oil companies are now recouping the losses.A hike of Rs 15-20 per litre is required to fully pass the increase in international oil prices. India is 85 per cent dependent on imports to meet its oil needs.
