I feel its a ploy not sell MS/HSD on a subsidised rates and suffer losses since private sector Oilcos are not being re-imbursed by the Govt for the subsidy. IOC xtramile diesel has Elf additives which is mixed to the diesel at the oil depots.

I dont think whatever shell adds to the diesel would cost them Rs10/ltr extra, when the cost difference between normal IOC diesel and xtramile diesel is not more than Rs1/ltr.
