Being an oil marketing company, HPCL buys crude oil as its main raw material. Any sharp increase in crude oil prices leads to a sharp increase in the costs of the company.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Geopolitical tensions and Supply disruptions:<\/strong>The ongoing geopolitical tensions, especially in the oil-producing regions of the world, like the Middle East, have created uncertainty. Conflicts involving the major oil producers of the world have the potential to raise the risk premium of crude oil prices.<\/li><\/ul><ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Fear of Marketing Losses:<\/strong> Another major factor which will influence the share prices of HPCL is the fear of marketing losses. When the prices of crude oil increase considerably, but the prices of retail fuel are kept constant due to political or economic compulsions, the companies may be forced to sell the fuel at a loss.<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>\u00a0Government Price Controls: <\/strong>Fuel prices in India are often subject to government policies to control inflation and provide relief to the end users. During periods of higher crude oil prices, oil marketing companies like HPCL may not be able to pass on the higher costs to the end users.<\/li>\n\n<li><strong>Sector-Wide Weakness in OMC Stocks: <\/strong>The decline of the HPCL share price is also a reflection of the overall market trend, as the entire oil marketing industry has witnessed a decline. Other public sector companies in the oil marketing industry have also witnessed the same kind of decline, as the business dynamics of the companies are more or less the same, including the crude oil prices.<\/li><\/ul><p><em>Download the <\/em><a href=\"http:\/\/apps.apple.com\/in\/app\/univest-stocks-investment\/id6443753518\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Univest iOS App<\/em><\/a><em> or the <\/em><a href=\"http:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=com.univest.capp&amp;hl=en_IN\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Univest Android App<\/em><\/a><em> to get daily stock recommendations and insightful research pieces!<\/em><\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Hindustan_Petroleum_Recent_Market_Performance\"><\/span><strong>Hindustan Petroleum Recent Market Performance<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2><p>The recent Hindustan Petroleum share price stands at \u20b9334.00, down 4.47% over the past day.
