What Drives Fuel Prices in India ?
Fuel prices aren’t just numbers - they’re influenced by a mix of domestic and international factors:

• Global Crude Oil Rates: Petrol and diesel are refined from crude oil, so international price movements play a major role.
• Rupee-Dollar Exchange Rate: Since India imports most of its crude, a weaker rupee means higher costs.
• Central and State Taxes: Fuel taxes vary by state, making prices different across cities.
• Refining Expenses: Converting crude into usable fuel comes at a cost, and that cost is reflected at the pump.
• Market Demand: When demand spikes, prices often follow due to supply pressure.
