Global macro situation responsible for rising petrol, diesel prices: ASSOCHAM

11 Sep 2018 Evaluate

The industry chamber, Associated Chambers of Commerce and Industry of India (ASSOCHAM) has said that the most important factor responsible for rising petrol and diesel prices, at this point of time, is the global macro situation, impacting the entire pack of Emerging Markets, with India being no exception. However, it expressed hopes that the tax burden would be brought down to some extent.

The industry chamber said “It has been our stand that petrol and diesel should be brought under the Goods and Services Tax (GST). However, it may not be feasible at this point of time”. It also said that the US dollar has been strengthening against most currencies of the world, so the weakening of rupee against the dollar has to be seen in that context.

ASSOCHAM further said that with India being a large importer of crude oil, the currency depreciation does have an impact on the landed prices. It also noted that the crude, in any case, has been rising amidst a firm global sentiment. Adding further, it said that the government and the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) are seized of the matter and are considering various options including the option of bringing down the tax burden to some extent.
