The rise in prices comes amidst the revision of global crude oil prices owing to a possible stifling of supply in the near future. 

Fuel prices had touched its peak in India on October 4. Notably, India is the third-largest importer of crude oil in the world. The fuel prices in India started stabilizing after global crude oil prices went down around 30% due to excess global production. Speculations are rife that the prices of petrol and diesel may keep on increasing in the near future as OPEC-led nations have now decided to cut down oil production again.
