Crude oil futures declined by 0.64% to Rs 4,829 per barrel today in line with a weak trend in Asian trade.

At the Multi Commodity Exchange, crude oil for delivery in October shed Rs 31, or 0.64%, to Rs 4,829 per barrel, with a business volume of 889 lots.

The November contract moved down by Rs 29, or 0.59%, to Rs 4,860 per barrel, with a turnover of 869 lots.
