Petrol, Diesel prices at an all-time high in Delhi and Mumbai

New Delhi : Another hike in the prices of petrol and diesel pushed its prices to an all-time high in Delhi and Mumbai. This comes as international oil prices are at three year high with global benchmark Brent trading at USD 78.64 per barrel.

Petrol price was increased by 25 paise to Rs 101.89 per litre in Delhi on Friday. In the national capital, diesel price was hiked by 30 paise to Rs 90.17 per litre.
