Economic News
• Fuel prices surge Rs 7.5/litre in 12 days amid soaring crude oil costs: Petrol and diesel prices were hiked again by Rs2.61 and Rs 2.71 per litre, marking the fourth increase in less than two weeks and taking the total rise to about Rs 7.5 per litre since May 15. The hike comes as state-run oil marketing companies pass on the impact of surging global crude oil prices, which have jumped over 50% since late February. Despite the price increases, OMCs continue to face daily losses of nearly Rs 600 crore, although losses have reduced from around Rs1,000 crore before the latest revision cycle began.
Global News
• Singapore’s Q1 growth beats estimates on strong AI-driven exports, but global geopolitical risks cloud the outlook: Singapore’s economy grew a stronger-than-expected 6.0% YoY in Q1 2026, driven by robust expansion in wholesale trade, manufacturing, finance, and strong AI-led demand that boosted electronics exports and lifted non-oil domestic exports by 9.6%. Enterprise Singapore also raised its 2026 export growth forecast to 3–5% amid resilient external demand. However, authorities cautioned that the economic outlook has weakened due to escalating Middle East tensions, volatile oil prices, supply chain risks, and uncertainties around U.S. trade tariffs, which could weigh on growth and inflation going forward. While the government retained its 2026 GDP growth forecast at 2–4%, officials highlighted rising downside risks and said policy adjustments may be considered if global conditions worsen further.
