Petrol, Diesel Price – The outlook for crude oil remains positive globally and is expected to take a rise, Expert Anuj Gupta, Vice President (VP), Commodity and Currency Research at IIFL Securities opines. He had told that the prices would increase in the near term that may have an impact of petrol and diesel. While the near term targets given by Gupta for Brent Crude and WTI have almost been achieved, there is a further upside because of Global demand picking up now. 

Crude oil traded with weakness this week and ended lower on Friday despite some uptick. Brent futures rose 12 cents, or 0.2 per cent, to settle at USD 73.59 a barrel, while US West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude rose 16 cents, or 0.2 per cent, to settle at USD 71.81. Earlier in the volatile session, both benchmarks were down over USD 1 a barrel.

Brent fell almost 3 per cent for the week, marking a decline for the third week in a row for the first time since April 2020. WTI fell almost 4 per cent this week.

However, the near term outlook still remains positive. Ravindra Rao of Kotak Securities expects WTI Crude to hold at USD 77-78, Zee Business had recently reported. Meanwhile, Kunal Shah of Nirmal Bang said that the upside remains but the prices are unlikely to go beyond USD 80.

A higher price could lead to further escalation in prices considering that the price of petrol and diesel have been increasing regularly.
