How are prices determined?

In India, petrol and diesel prices are based on global crude oil prices and foreign exchange rates. In addition, due to the excise duty levied by the central government and the VAT (Value Added Tax) collected by state governments, oil prices vary from state to state.

Why does it have a direct impact on your pocket?

Even a slight change in fuel prices affects transportation costs. As trucks, autos, and buses become more expensive, the prices of vegetables, milk, and everyday essentials also increase. This is why petrol and diesel prices are linked to every family's budget.
