Fuel prices rise again, petrol crosses Rs 100 per litre mark in several cities


New Delhi, Jun 1 (IANS): After hitting new highs a day earlier, fuel prices rose once again on Tuesday taking petrol rates to cross Rs 100 per litre mark in several cities across the country.

The pump prices of petrol and diesel increased by 26 paise and 23 paise per litre to Rs 94.49 and Rs 85.38 per litre respectively in Delhi on Tuesday.

This is the second consecutive increase in fuel prices in as many days. Petrol and diesel prices had risen up to 29 paise per litre even on Monday.

In the city of Mumbai, where price of petrol crossed Rs 100 mark for the first time on Saturday, the fuel price rise again on Tuesday by about 25 paise per litre has taken it to a new high of Rs 100.72 per litre. Diesel price also increased in the city by 24 paise per litre to reach Rs 92.69 a litre, the highest among metros.

Across the country as well petrol and diesel prices increased on Tuesday but the quantum varied depending on the level of local taxes in different states.

Mumbai is not the only city to have unique distinction of petrol breaching the Rs 100 pet litre mark. Thane reached the mark few days back while few other cities in Rajasthan (including Jaipur) Madhya Pradesh and Maharashtra, having the highest VAT levels on auto fuels in the country, have already been selling normal petrol for over Rs 100 a litre for the past several days.

Premium petrol prices have already crossed the Rs 100 per litre mark in the city and other parts of the country through increase in the retail rates in the month of January and February.

With Tuesday's price rise, fuel prices have now increased on 17 days and remained unchanged on 15 days since May 1. The 17 increases have taken up petrol price by Rs 4.09 per litre in Delhi. Similarly, diesel price has increased by Rs 4.66 per litre in the national capital.

Under daily price revision, OMCs revise petrol and diesel prices every morning benchmarking retail fuel prices to a 15-day rolling average of global refined products' prices and dollar exchange rate. However, in a market where fuel prices need to be increased successively, oil companies this month have been holding back price rise on few days before starting the process all over again.

With global crude prices rising again to around $70 a barrel mark, OMCs may have to keep revising prices upwards for some more time.

    Look what this Andera ka andh bhakth talking. He is talking about VAT and crude oil price gone beyond $70 per Dollar. This andh Bhakth was in deep sleep when Crude oil price was $160 a barrel and yet MMS was able to keep the petrol price for 60 Rupees per litre. The difference is education and management. What a bhakth!! wow!!

Are you happy with the policies she introduced, or to hell with your satisfaction as long as the boss is happy ?? What is your logic in complaining about ministers quitting, can you elaborate ?? Despite the low cost of petrol /diesel, how did MMS show 8.5% GDP if his policies were rubbish ?? What is current GDP despite us paying nearly double the cost ?? Where is Indians money going Manjit ?? To Swiss Bank ?? Then, will Modi announce 30 Lakhs if he is elected again ?

    Global rise for crude oil, has crossed beyond $ 70 per barrel...The Union n the state government's, must reduce VAT immediately to stabilize petroleum prices. My state of Maharashtra, is the worst taxed state in India... reducing VAT proportionally, will provide relief and bring down inflation, especially during this devastating pandemic.

They do not even question their own party as supporters. Also, a very shameless govt in power as they tweeted, tweeted and tweeted on all the issues while in opposition before 2014.
