FM indicates rationalization of fuel prices

18 Oct 2012 Evaluate

With the alarming position of current account deficit, Finance Minister P Chidambaram has indicated for a rational and transparent energy pricing mechanism and correction of distortion in petrol and diesel prices caused due to unequal taxation, so as to protect the interest of poor and vulnerable sections of the society. He pointed out that the current level of subsidy on petroleum products is not conducive for economic policy decisions, as the rising subsidy bill has hiked the Government’s fiscal deficit.

He blamed the tighter global product market, peaking commodity prices, growing demand and slowing global financial growth, for the tough situation concerning welfare of citizens and acting as a major challenge for the policy makers. He also urged that the oil producing countries must exploit and sell at reasonable price to those who do not have less or resource for easing the stringent situation. He affirmed that the burgeoning subsidy bill is experienced not only in India but all developing countries are facing the situation.

The oil companies which had recorded loss in the first quarter are preparing to announce financial results for the second quarter, June-September without any compensation from the Government on account of selling diesel, domestic LPG and PDS kerosene below the cost price. India imports about 75% of its crude oil requirement.
