Shell in India (fuel, lubes, outlets)

libranof1987 · 16th January 2011, 08:56

Petrol price now stands at Rs. 65.23/-.

Any news on if Shell is planning a hike? (Shell is now more than a rupee cheaper than others)

I think Shell will follow suit after a couple of days. There is no way they can sustain this price.

I saw it was already 68.xx for super and 66.xx for normal today morning.

Shell normal is 64.20 in Mysore... increased by 1 rupee.
Shell is now cheaper than other PSUs.... all the more reason to go to shell.

Can there be a 4 rupee diff. between states?
Or Shell has increased prices again?

I think Shell is cheaper in Karnataka and more costly in neighbouring states. Regarding the 4 rupee price difference, I noticed that fuel was cheaper by around 4 rs in Hassan and Belur, when compared to Bangalore and Chikmagalur. I wonder why the difference was so high.

Filled up at Shell (Rajkumar Road) yesterday @ 65.20, it's a tad cheaper than PSU prices right now. But the attendant told me that they were expecting a 2+ rupee hike sometime this week. So I think there is a little window for cheaper shell fuel this week.

I guess the reason the PSU's are increasing petrol to this extend is more to cover costs for diesel also? In that case Shell might be able to keep the cost lower.

Filled Super unleaded @ Rs 68.20 yesterday. Normal costs Rs 65.70.

Neilguy · 17th January 2011, 15:03

Is the price of Shell petrol consistent across the city (Hyderabad) or is it different for each location?

Hi Gansan, I was in Chennai last month. there were 3 Shell petrol bunk near from house (Madhavaram) and all 3 were closed. Which Shell bunk are you using?

Gansan · 17th January 2011, 17:31

^^This one is on the GST Road, at Chromepet.

Latheesh · 17th January 2011, 18:15

:-) I filled 30L regular @ 64.45 on saturday.

Shell has always adapted a cost + pricing so I don't think they would be losing money at the current rates, though my grouse against them is in Chennai their prices are higher by more than Rs.3/- compared to Bangalore even if I take Re.1/- as transportation costs from Bangalore to Chennai. Despite my repeated attempts to get the message conveyed to the higher ups through their pumps have not been successful, Ganesan sir, may be you should also start from your end "Siru Thuli Peru Vellam".
