Crude Oil Price: There is news of great relief for India. Crude Oil Price has rolled to the lowest levels of 2022. In the wake of the Global Economic Crisis, the price of Brent crude oil has dropped below $80 per barrel due to deteriorating sentiment. The price of Brent Crude Oil is trading at $78.65 per barrel. So the WTI Crude price has dropped to $73.49 per barrel.

 

Crude oil slips below $80

This is the second time in 2022 that Brent crude oil has slipped below $80 per barrel. There has been a big decline in crude oil due to the possibility of increasing the interest rate of the Federal Reserve and the possibility of a recession. The strict monetary policy of the central banks around the world is also affected. In India, RBI has increased the repo rate for the fifth time due to high inflation. On the other hand, service-sector activity in China has fallen to a 6-month low. So there is a possibility of a major decline in the economic growth rate in European countries due to high energy prices and high debt. Due to all these reasons crude oil is under pressure. In the current year, due to the Russia-Ukraine War, crude oil had reached the level of $139 per barrel. This means the prices have come down from their high to $61 per barrel.

 

This will help in reducing the financial loss

A fall in crude oil is an auspicious sign for India. Because India imports 80 percent of its crude oil consumption. Where the fall in the prices of crude oil will help in reducing inflation. At the same time, the central government will get help in reducing its financial deficit. This will also prevent the decline in foreign exchange funds.

 

There may be a reduction in the prices of petrol and diesel

Consumers can get a major benefit from the fall in the prices of crude oil. Government oil companies can reduce the prices of petrol and diesel in the coming days. If the price of diesel decreases, the freight will be cheaper, due to which the effect can be seen in the prices of many items.
