(MENAFN- Live Mint) Petrol and diesel prices today, October 5: Despite the US-Iran war, which has disrupted global energy supplies and added to pressure on fuel retailers facing higher crude oil and fuel costs, the state-owned oil marketing companies (OMCs) have kept the fuel rates steady following their 6:00 AM daily revision on Monday, October 5.

However, Nayara Energy, India's largest private fuel retailer, increased petrol prices by ₹5 per litre and diesel by ₹3 per litre on Saturday.

Meanwhile, OMC retailers had only begun passing on the impact of higher international oil prices to consumers in May. Petrol and diesel prices were hiked through a series of staggered increases, with the cumulative hike reaching around ₹7.50 per litre for both fuels by the end of May.
