Private fuel retailers Jio-bp and Nayara Energy have imposed limits on diesel purchases at their retail outlets as industrial and other bulk consumers turn to petrol pumps to take advantage of cheaper retail fuel, putting pressure on supplies and retail networks.
Jio-bp outlets have capped diesel purchases at 50 litres per customer per day, while transaction limits at Nayara Energy outlets range from 70 litres to 200 litres, people aware of the matter said.
Public sector fuel retailers Indian Oil Corporation (IOC), Bharat Petroleum Corporation Ltd (BPCL) and Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Ltd (HPCL) too are likely to impose quantity restrictions.

Realty firm Prestige Estates has shelved plans to launch an initial public offering of its hotel business because of uncertain market conditions and other factors.
In April last year, Prestige Estates Projects Ltd's subsidiary Prestige Hospitality Ventures Ltd  (PHVL) filed a Draft Red Herring Prospectus (DRHP) with the Securities and Exchange Board of India (Sebi) to launch an IPO.
The company planned to raise up to Rs 2,700 crore through a public issue.
In a regulatory filing on Friday, the company informed that the board of directors decided to "withdraw the DRHP on account of strategic considerations and uncertain market conditions".
PHVL might consider filing a fresh draft red herring prospectus with Sebi in the future for an initial public offering of its equity shares subject to suitable market conditions, receipt of requisite approvals and other considerations.
In August this year, Prestige Estates said that Canada-based investment firm CPPIB will invest up to Rs 3,000 cro

Chief Justice of India Surya Kant on Saturday said substance abuse among children must be understood as a child protection issue, rather than as a matter of public health concern.
Delivering the Pataliputra Pragya Pravah lecture on 'Childhood Beyond Drugs: Protection, Care and Reintegration' at the Bihar Lok Bhavan here, Justice Kant cited a recent Lancet study to say that at least one in five teenagers in India were at moderate to high risk of substance abuse.
"Substance abuse among children must be understood not only as a matter of public health concern, but as a child protection issue as well," he said.
Justice Kant stressed the need for a "child-sensitive response" to addiction to protect not only the child's physical and mental well-being but also their dignity and sense of self-worth.
He said, "Restoration means creating conditions in which a child can again experience what childhood ought to provide -- education, relationship, play, trust, and the confidence of a future bey

West Bengal Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari has assured the Indian Oil Corporation of facilitating land for its long-pending plans to develop a petrochemical complex alongside its refinery in Haldia.
Noting that the expansion would require 175 acres of land, the chief minister on Monday said the Haldia Development Authority has already arranged 85 acres and the remaining could be facilitated through the Haldia Dock Complex of Syama Prasad Mookherjee Port.
Adhikari said he has taken up the matter with the port authorities to ensure that the land is made available to Indian Oil Corporation (IOC) for its proposed expansion.
An official said, "If this happens, then the IOC will send the project to the board for consideration."
The state-owned oil major said it was considering an expansion at Haldia, which could include a chemical downstream project. The OC has for years sought the 175-acre parcel adjoining its Haldia refinery to expand its operations and develop downstream petrochemica
