New Delhi: As investors fled the unpredictable market in a shaky economy, oil prices plummeted on Tuesday to their lowest settlement levels of the year, with Brent ending below $80 per barrel for the second time in 2022. The price of Brent crude futures dropped $3.33 to settle at $79.35 a barrel. WTI crude futures reached their lowest settlement of the year at $74.25 a barrel after dropping $2.68. Despite the hip-hop trend of prices of crude oil in the global markets, petrol and diesel prices have remained largely stable in India. However, the price of gasoline and diesel in India has stayed largely steady since the central government cut the tax charge.
