Why have prices been stable for the last two years??
Tax cuts were made by the Center and many states from May 2022 onwards, after which the prices of petrol and diesel are seeing stability. Although there are fluctuations in the international market, prices remain relatively stable for Indian consumers.
For what reasons are fuel prices decided??
- Crude Oil Prices:
Petrol and diesel are produced mainly from crude oil. When international crude oil prices increase, it directly impacts the Indian market.
- Rupee against dollar:
India mostly imports crude oil, and it is bought in dollars. If the rupee weakens, fuel becomes expensive.
- Government Taxes and Fees:
Central and state governments impose heavy taxes on petrol and diesel, which form a major part of the retail price. This is why prices vary across states.
- Cost of Refining:
Expenditure is also incurred in the process of making crude oil usable (refining). These costs depend on the quality of crude oil and the capacity of the refinery.
- Balance of demand and supply:
If the demand for fuel increases in the market, the prices also start going up. Fuel consumption is high especially during festivals, summer or winter season.
