Get Ready to Pay More for Petrol and Diesel
August 02, 2017
Starting today, consumers will have to pay more for petrol and diesel as the oil marketing companies have increased the dealer commission for the petrol pump owners. Since this commission is added to the selling price of the fuel, the extra price will have to be borne by the consumers.
The dealer commission before was Rs. 1.65 per liter for diesel, and Rs. 2.55 per liter for petrol. However, as per the request of All India Petroleum Dealers Association for a hike in the commission, the rates have been increased by Rs. 0.72 and Rs. 1 respectively, with effect from August 1.
