Fuel prices are regulated through a combination of:

  • Excise taxes (imposed by the central government)
  • State-level VAT (varies by region)
  • Global crude oil price fluctuations
  • Exchange rate variations

Why Are Fuel Prices Falling?

Fuel prices in India have remained steady due to multiple factors:

  • Drop in Global Crude Oil Prices – Geopolitical stability and increased production by major oil-exporting nations have pushed crude oil prices below $80 per barrel.
  • Tax Cuts by Government – The central and state governments reduced excise duties and VAT to ease inflation, passing on the benefits to consumers.
  • Stronger Rupee Against Dollar – A stable rupee has made oil imports cheaper, contributing to lower fuel costs.
  • Revised Pricing Formula by OMCs – Oil companies now align domestic prices more closely with international benchmarks, ensuring fair adjustments.
