Petrol and diesel prices can be further reduced
Despite the price rise in the international market, petrol and diesel prices are expected to rise due to elections in the domestic market. Elections will be held in the five states of the country, including West Bengal. According to sources, there may be a further decline in petrol and diesel prices before the election.
Petrol and diesel rates will thus be increased
Once excise duty, dealer commission and other items are added to the price of petrol and diesel, its price will double. If the central government excludes excise duty and state governments’ VAT, diesel and petrol rates may be around Rs 27 per liter, but neither the central nor the state government can remove the tax at any time. Because the bulk of the revenue comes from here. This money leads to growth.
