Crude oil softens

However, contrary to these apprehensions, there was relief even on the 9th day of the end of the election. Domestically, there was no change in the price of petrol and diesel even after 131 consecutive days today. Meanwhile, crude oil has also come down to $100 against $140 per barrel.

Nine states did not reduce VAT on petrol and diesel
Petroleum Minister Hardeep Singh Puri has told the Parliament that nine states including Maharashtra and Kerala have not reduced VAT on petrol and diesel. Reduction in VAT would have helped in reducing oil prices. He also said that fuel prices have increased by more than 50% in many countries during the pandemic, but only by five per cent in India. He feared that a jump in crude oil prices would further push inflation in the coming months. Oil prices skyrocketed after Russia’s attack on Ukraine.
