The Petrol prices in Manipur are based on dynamic fuel pricing system and hence revised on a regular basis. The petrol rates are revised at 6 am every day. This dynamic pricing ensures that even a minute’s variation in global oil prices can be transmitted to fuel users and dealers. The final petrol rate is decided by adding payment to the refineries, excise duty, dealer commission and Value-Added Tax or VAT. After adding these, the retail selling price of petrol gets nearly doubled. Several factors determine the price of petrol – like rupee to US dollar exchange rate, cost of crude oil, global cues, demand for fuel, among others. When international crude oil prices gain, fuel price in India moves higher.
Petrol in Delhi will now cost Rs 104.61 per litre as against Rs 103.81 previously, while diesel rates have gone up from Rs 95.07 per litre to Rs 95.87, according to a price notification of state fuel retailers.
Rates have been increased across the country and vary from state to state depending upon the incidence of local taxation.
