Reliance Caps Fuel Sales to $11 a Visit as Shortages Deepen

Reliance Industries Ltd. has capped fuel purchases across its retail outlets — limiting customers to about $11 worth of gasoline or diesel — as the Middle East crisis continues to choke off supplies despite a tentative ceasefire.

The country’s largest private-sector oil refiner is restricting individual purchases to 1,000 rupees ($10.8) per visit at fuel stations it operates with partner BP Plc, according to people familiar with the matter. The joint venture has more than 2,000 fuel pumps across the country.
