India's fuel prices held steady on April 6 even as crude oil topped $111 a barrel due to the prolonged US-Iran conflict and a closed Strait of Hormuz.
Crude oil prices climbed above $111 per barrel as the 38-day US-Iran conflict continues, with the critical Strait of Hormuz remaining closed to shipping. This has triggered a significant supply crunch in global markets. However, India has successfully maintained largely stable domestic fuel prices despite the international volatility.
