The Official Fuel Prices Thread

Anybody knows if HPCL and IOC have hiked the price in Pune as of now? As of yesterday, only BPCL had hiked the rates... hence asking.

I see the diesel prices also hiked @ Shell. It has breached the Rs 50 mark at Bangalore

anujmishra · 15th January 2011, 18:13

Just got the news the Petrol Prices will go up again by Rupees 2.50 a liter from today midnight. What is happening over here?

Now with the today's hike petrol prices will go beyond Rupees 66 a liter in Bangalore.

Acclero · 15th January 2011, 19:17

It has been hiked by another 3rs today that takes it to 65/ltr Petrol in Andhra Pradesh.
The way it is going we need to buy Flintstones car

SafeDrive · 15th January 2011, 19:37

And now I've come to a point where I can afford a car but not the fuel. The way things are going it's going to be the death knell for petrol cars.

neo45007 · 15th January 2011, 19:43

I guess the Govt does not want people to travel by cars, but they want us to walk everywhere.

Thats not the way to save environment.

how am i going to feed my baby???

It seems the oil companies are increasing the prices if the price of crude oil goes up. But they are not bringing it down if it comes down. They wait at the same level till the next price increase of crude oil...

MAS · 15th January 2011, 19:59

I also just heard in the news. Petrol going to go up by Rs. 2.54. Where are the prices heading?

akshaymahajan · 15th January 2011, 20:04

DELHI: State-owned oil companies today raised petrol prices by Rs 2.50-Rs 2.54 per litre, the second hike in a month.
Wow. That's almost a 10% hike in the past 2 months. Now it kind scares me. With this rate the day when petrol reaches Rs100/liter is not far.
And its not just petrol. Only yesterday the newspaper had an article about CNG prices rising by around 8% spread over the next few months. It's like the government saw this opportunity and struck.

CliffHanger · 15th January 2011, 20:24

Suddenly, diesel cars are appearing priceless.
One more reason to fall in love again with my baby, Punto :o)

mgh · 15th January 2011, 20:28

the reason is high taxes, apart from prices of crude.
we have not yet lost the socialistic mind set, and tax everything perceived to be 'luxury' heavily. instead of ad valorem, the government should have fixed duties on things like fuel.as the consumption is increasing, the revenues will also increase.
most people will happily take to public transport, if there is enough of it, so that you do not travel 'cattle class', and you do not have to walk much to get to it.

Just tanked up for my Corolla and Santro. I saved a cool Rs. 120

MutantX · 15th January 2011, 21:23
