On similar lines, oil for delivery in current month moved down by Rs 15, or 0.37 percent, to Rs 4,043 per barrel in 4,839 lots.

Marketmen said the fall in crude prices at futures market was mostly attributed to profit-booking but a firm trend overseas where it rose to a near four-month highs, capped the losses.

Meanwhile, West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude traded higher at USD 59.38, while Brent crude rose 0.15 percent, to USD 67.64 per barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.
