New Delhi, Aug 21 (TIWN): After three consecutive days of price cuts, petrol and diesel prices in the country remained unchanged on Saturday as oil marketing companies (OMC) decided to go on a pause mode to see global developments in the oil markets before any further revision.

Unlike diesel, petrol prices have not be changed by OMCs for past 35 days and the fuel continues to be priced at Rs 101.84 a litre in Delhi, the same price level that was reached on July 17. 

Across the country as well, fuel prices remained unchanged on Saturday.  Global crude oil prices continue to decline. The October contract of Brent crude oil on the Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) was trading at $66.72 per barrel.
