New Delhi, Aug 9 Fuel consumers could have got between Rs 1-2 per litre relief while filling up their vehicle's tank with petrol and diesel but for the reluctance of oil marketing companies to trust the current softening of global oil prices.

Even on Monday petrol and diesel prices remained at the same level
