ROY'S FIGURE IS BLUNDER
Cost of 200 Ltrs. (1 Barrel) of Crude Oil in US/Gulf is US S$ 130/- appx. That itself works out Rs. @42.5 Rs/$) = Rs. 5460/- which is Rs. 27.30 per litre. This Crude Oil will give only appx. 30 to 35% of Petrol. ie: To refine 1 Ltr of Petrol from crude oil, it requires 78 Rs. Crude oil. Now add the shipping cost of crude to Indian port and the refining cost....But when we refine the crude we also get other end products...The average cost of one ltr. Petrol is Rs. 72/- we are getting for 51 Rs. and balance is subsidy from central government.

Petrol Fever - A Real Eye Opener
Dear Friends,
Following is the article from well known Newspaper.
Find the detail break-up of the Final price of petrol available in
pumps.
This is a break up considering crude oil at 130 $ per barrel. Following
details are for per liter petrol in Rs.
- Basic Price = Rs 21.93
- Excise duty = Rs 14.35
- Education Tax = Rs 0.43
- Dealer commission = Rs 1.05
- VAT = Rs 5.5
- Crude Oil Custom duty = Rs 1.1
- Petrol Custom = Rs 1.54
- Transportation Charge = Rs 6.00
- Total price = Rs 51.90
So for a Rs 22 liter petrol at pumps we people pay Rs 28 tax extra.
Govt. is thinking to impose more price hike to curtain with the current
crude oil bubble in International oil crisis.
If Central Govt. wish, it can still reduce the price of petrol in the
current crisis situation, but it doesn't intend to do so, instead trying
to fool the people and Nation. This is the basis LEFT parties are
opposing, just generating more profits for the oil marketing companies.
Don't you think you should pass this message to create more awareness
among the people.
