1)Firstly,in india no oil company is sitting on stockpiles. 70 % of our requirement is imported for whom...the common man whom you profess to support. & oil companies record losses of crores per day bcoz they have to sell petrol at 4 Rs loss, Diesel 2 Rs Loss, LPG 235 Rs kerosene at 16 Rs loss. Later on this loss is compensated thro govt bonds which are not hard cash anyway and the companies' credit rating takes a hit.
2)the price in other countries is less bcoz taxation is less. In India the production cost is Rs 20 but due to taxation & excise the price goes up to Rs 48.Its the govt not the oil companies which raise the prices. Abt the public, they are supposed to be paying 500 Rs for a cylinder and 20 Rs for kerosene but the govt forces the companies to sell at rates below production cost bcoz of vote bank politics. 3) In India if people do not buy fuel for 1000 days it will be beneficial to the oil companies.So do it. & get your facts right !!!!! --- Goswami Manish <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > F.Y.I. > > Dear Friends! > > Petrol in Pakistan Rs17 per litr > Malaysia Rs 18 per litr > In Indiait's 48 per litr > > Why this difference in Asia itself?
