How are Petrol Rates in Durgapur Calculated? 

The prices of petrol in any state is formed by the following cost elements: 

  • Crude Oil Price: This is the base price of raw oil purchased from international markets. India imports over 80% of its crude oil, making this a significant factor. 
  • Refinery and Freight Costs: The cost of refining crude oil into petrol and transporting it to various parts of the country. 
  • Dealer's Commission: A commission paid to the fuel pump owners. 
  • Central Excise Duty: A tax levied by the central government, which is a fixed amount. 
  • State Value Added Tax: A tax imposed by the state government, which varies from state to state. 
  • Exchange Rate: Since crude oil is traded in US dollars, the rupee to dollar exchange rate affects the import cost. 

Dynamic Pricing Model 

Since June 2017, India has followed a dynamic fuel pricing model. This means that petrol and diesel prices are revised daily at 6 a.m. This system replaced the earlier practice of revising prices every fortnight. The daily revision helps to align the domestic fuel prices with the fluctuations in international crude oil prices and currency exchange rates.  

Factors Affecting Petrol Costs in Durgapur 

The different factors that affect petrol costs in Durgapur are mentioned in the table below: 

Factor 

Description 

Global Crude Oil Prices 

The international price of crude oil is the primary determinant. Any disruption in global supply or a change in production levels by Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) can alter the prices. 

Government Taxes 

Both the central and state governments levy taxes on petrol. The central government imposes an excise duty, while the  state government charges VAT. These taxes constitute a significant portion of the retail price. 

Rupee-Dollar Exchange Rate 

As India imports a large portion of its crude oil, the exchange rate between the Indian Rupee and the US Dollar plays a crucial role. A weaker rupee makes oil imports more expensive. 

Supply and Demand 

Seasonal changes, economic activity, and consumer behaviour can affect the demand for petrol, leading to price fluctuations. 

Transportation and Distribution Costs 

The cost of transporting petrol from refineries to retail outlets across Durgapur also adds to the final price. 

 

GST Impact on Petrol Prices in Durgapur 

GST, a new tax platform, has been adopted in India. The new tax platform replaces the various types of indirect taxes. 

Being a common platform, GST covers all categories of goods and services, which are sold within the country. GST has no impact on petrol rates because petrol has been kept outside the GST system. 

Tips to Save on Fuel Costs 

Some of the tips that can be followed to save on fuel costs are mentioned below: 

  • Use the Correct Gear: Driving in the appropriate gear can help in reducing fuel consumption. 
  • Switch off the Engine at Long Stops: If you have to wait for more than a minute, it is better to turn off the engine. 
  • Service Your Vehicle on Time: Regular maintenance ensures that your engine and other components are in good condition. 
  • Check Tyre Pressure Regularly: Properly inflated tyres can improve your vehicle's fuel efficiency. 
  • Maintain a Steady Speed: Avoid sudden acceleration and braking.
