Indian Oil says domestic petrol and diesel rose only marginally—about Rs 3 per litre—after global pressures, with the company maintaining supply security by running its refineries at more than 100% capacity. IOCL Director (Refineries) Arvind Kumar said 10 refineries are operating round the clock to avoid any “crisis” at retail outlets. Separately, IOCL is backing long-term energy shifts, including providing two hydrogen-powered buses to Delhi Metro that run with green hydrogen from its Faridabad R&D centre.
Delhi Metro is set to launch a hydrogen-powered shuttle bus service in Central Vista to encourage government employees to commute by public transport. The weekday service will connect Central Secretariat and Seva Teerth metro stations with major government offices, using just two hydrogen-fuelled buses during peak office hours. The move is part of wider energy-saving efforts in the area.
