The OMCs hiked retail pricing of petrol and diesel by Rs0.8/litre on Tuesday, the first increase since November 21. Also, a hike in the price of LPG by Rs50/cylinder to Rs950 was seen yesterday. The brokerage firm Prabhudas Lilladher has said in a research report that "The move removes an overhang of sizeable marketing losses of over Rs12/litre being borne by the OMCs and upstream companies. With crude oil prices rising due to geopolitical tensions, the price hike was important even if delayed. We reiterate our Overweight stance on the sector but prefer upstream companies like OIL, GAIL, ONGC on back of rising crude oil and gas prices."
