India had so far avoided raising petrol and diesel prices despite a steep jump in global crude oil prices triggered by the Iran conflict and the Strait of Hormuz crisis.However, mounting under-recoveries suffered by oil marketing companies forced the latest revision. State-run oil companies are estimated to be losing between Rs 1,000 crore and Rs 1,200 crore daily due to elevated crude prices and previously unchanged retail fuel rates.India imports nearly 90 per cent of its crude oil requirements, making domestic fuel prices highly sensitive to global energy shocks.
