Break-up of Petrol Prices

As per the report, based on the foreign exchange rates and crude oil prices of October 2015, the actual cost of production for oil companies comes to around Rs 24.75 per litre (ONLY). This in turn they sell to dealers at Rs 27.24/litre to bring in profits and other costs. The dealer in turn pockets about Rs 2.26/litre for their own profits and expenditures. So, after all the stakeholders have got their share, for every liter of petrol you and I should pay less than Rs 30 per liter, correct?

But there is another stakeholder which takes its share – the Indian central and state government! It applies a total excise duty of Rs 19.06/litre. This includes a basic excise duty of Rs 7.06/litre and the rest as special excise duties and educational cess. Taking into accord the city of Delhi, the state government applies a VAT of Rs 12.14/litre.

Rupee is at a 2-year low of 66.9 against US dollar , despite Brent Crude hovering at almost a 11 year low. One can only wonder what would have happened to the rupee if Oil had been at 2011-2014 levels.

US dollar is gaining strength. That is the side effect.  This is fastest rise in  dollar strength in the last 40 years. Dollar is hot. Not just Indian currency . Many of US trade partners also got affected by it.

There is a difference between USD gaining and rupee losing.Some of these morons dont understand that a weaker rupee at this time will help exports.

And it massively affects imports and causes FDI outflow when Rupee depreciates .Even exporters are affected when there is too much volatility as they are exposed to exchange risk . 90-95% of external borrowings is unhedged as well

Just Google what happened to Tiruppur export market when Rupee suddenly depreciated beyond the 48-54 range during 2009/10 .

Ridiculous and ignorant to say Rupee depreciating is good for our economy in any way .

Oh and since the NDA govt took power and abolished the export subsidy , the exports % have fallen for a year continuously .

Thankfully they have seen some sense, realize their stupidity and reintroduced it again recently .

Why do u think RBI intervenes regularly in market to keep Rupee from deteriorating and maintain stability ?

Just becoz RBI doesn't publish everything doesn't mean they are a mute spectator lol

India's second quarter gross domestic product (GDP) grew 7.4 percent, compared to 7 percent in the previous quarter. This is slightly shy of the 7.5 percent figure a CNBC-TV18 poll of economists had forecast. The GDP data was boosted by a nominal increase in agriculture sector growth, which stood at 2.2 percent, compared to 1.9 percent QoQ. Mining sector grew at 3.2 percent versus 4 percent while manufacturing growth stood at 9.3 percent, compared to 7.9 percent QoQ.
