Petrol and diesel prices today: Fuel prices remained steady on Friday, 26 June, across Indian cities even though oil prices edged lower amid easing supply concerns. Brent crude futures declined 0.25% by 19 cents to settle at $75.07 a barrel as of 0055 GMT, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate plunged 0.18%, by 13 cents to trade at $71.79 a barrel, Reuters reported. On Thursday, oil prices rebounded for the first time in five days after a cargo ship was attacked in the Strait of Hormuz which renewed concerns over safe passage of vessels through the crucial waterway. Crude shipments through the Strait registered record increase this week since the onset of West Asia conflict in February after a ceasefire deal reopened the waterway.
