The surging trend in fuel price, which started soon after the Karnataka polls, continued on Friday. The prices of petrol and diesel have been increased by 29 paise per litre.

Petrol prices remain highest in Mumbai at Rs 83.45 per litre with the surge of 29 paise. Diesel price touched Rs 71.42 per litre in the financial capital.

In case of highest diesel price, Hyderabad remained on top with price Rs 72.91.

These tally came a day after a brokerage firm asserted that Rs 4 per litre increase in petrol and diesel prices is in the offing if state-owned fuel retailers are to return to pre-Karnataka poll hiatus margin levels.

Soon after Karnataka polled to elect a new government, state-owned Indian Oil Corp (IOC), Hindustan Petroleum Corp (HPCL) and Bharat Petroleum Corp (BPCL) on Monday ended a 19-day hiatus in revising petrol and diesel prices and reverted to the practice of changing rates on a daily basis.

"Our computation suggests that downstream oil marketing companies (OMCs) are required to increase retail prices of diesel by a steep Rs 3.5-4 a litre and gasoline (petrol) by Rs 4-4.55 per litre in the coming weeks to earn normative gross marketing margins of Rs 2.7/litre," Kotak Institutional Equities said in a report.

The increase is based on assumption that global price of diesel and petrol and Rupee-US Dollar exchange rate remain stable hereon.
