Well,what I've heard somewhere is for every 10 mins. of idling time ,the car consumes around 100ml of petrol ( 1/10th litre).
switching on the A/c does use up engine revs thereby increasing consumption .. cant really say how much the consumption increase while idling with the a/c on .. so maybe it increases from 100ml /10mins to 110ml/10 mins ...

it leads to engine overheat in more often in smaller cars like altos and 800s ..
