Recently, the Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and its partners, known as OPEC+, agreed to reduce oil production by 2 million barrels per day. This move may have an influence on fuel pricing in India, where there may be a rise in the pricing of petrol and diesel, which has been stable for months since the Centre slashed the excise duty on petrol by Rs 8 per litre and on diesel by Rs 6 per litre on May 22.
