OMC’s in top gear on petrol price hike

24 May 2012 Evaluate

State-run oil marketing companies (OMC's) gathered momentum after the Congress-led UPA government announced Rs 7.50 hike - the steepest till date - in petrol prices. Since the government keeps hiking petrol prices while maintaining stand still stance for the prices of other fuels, the difference between petrol and diesel prices has gone up to Rs 25 per litre. Following the hike, a litre of petrol will now cost Rs 78.16 in Mumbai, Rs 73.14 in Delhi, Rs 77.53 in Kolkata and Rs 77.05 in Chennai. However, there could be more bad news in the offings as the government may announce a slash in subsidies on diesel, kerosene and LPG by Friday.
