Retail petrol and diesel prices remained unchanged, while state-owned fuel retailers were said to adjust pump prices based on average crude movements over a preceding period rather than daily fluctuations. The easing in oil-market tensions also led to the quiet suspension of inter-ministerial briefings monitoring supply and market stability.

    Gold loan borrowing capacity rises as gold prices climb, with valuation and eligibility rules unchanged.
    Rising gold prices increase the borrowing capacity available against pledged gold because gold loan amounts are calculated on the basis of the weight and purity of the ornament and the gold rate applied on the assessment date. The higher rate environment therefore allows the same jewellery or coins to support a larger loan amount without any change in the underlying eligibility criteria. Gold loan eligibility requires the applicant to be an Indian citizen aged between 21 and 80 years and to submit one KYC document. Accepted security includes gold jewellery or ornaments of 18 karat to 22 karat purity, and gold coins up to 24 karat.
