“Since last price change, there has been a steep increase in international prices of both petrol and diesel. INR-USD exchange rate has also depreciated quite significantly during this period. Combined impact of both these factors warrant an upward revision in prices, the impact of which is being passed on to the consumers with this price increase,” Indian Oil said in a statement
