Why do prices vary from city to city?

Often a question arises in the minds of consumers as to why there is difference in oil prices in nearby or distant cities like Delhi, Noida and Mumbai. The main reasons for this are as follows:

• State Level VAT: Every state government imposes Value Added Tax (VAT) and cess on petrol and diesel at different rates as per its rules. For example, because of higher tax rates in Maharashtra, Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, oil prices there are higher than some states in North India.

• Transportation and Logistics Costs: The distance and transportation cost of transporting oil from the oil refinery or depot to the petrol pump also varies from city to city.

• Local Octroi and Municipal Corporation Fees: In some cities, entry tax or octroi is charged by the local administration, which directly adds to the final price.
