Hi All,
I recently saw SMS being forwarded in India comparing Petrol/Gas prices around the world. The comparison was indicating that Petrol in Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka was sold very cheap but is costly in India. I did little bit google search and found figures were questionable. However like to hear your opinion. Could you please confirm the price is correct in INR if so why do you think it is cheaper.

As per message
Pakistan 26 INR
Bangladesh 22 INR
Sri Lanka 34 INR
India 84 INR

Your inputs greatly appreciated.

Shocking that Pakistani patrol is cheaper.

I don't know about Pakistan but In India the Central and state government's taxes make up nearly half of petrol's pump price. The Central govt has different taxes, which amount to about 24–26% of the final cost. The states taxes vary, but on average end up making about 20–25% of the final cost. As a result, approximately 50% of the pump cost goes to the government in the form of different taxes. Hence, the Prices of Petrol is High....

Actually I just rechecked farhan's post those were numbers of Pakistani petrol if converted to INR so yeah it is more expensive. :fie:

from a simple google search:
Petrol price reaches Rs113.25 per litre - Business - DAWN.COM
1 Pak Rupee = 0.61 INR, hence we get the price to be 70 rupees.

Petrol, gasoline, diesel prices in Bangladesh | MyTravelCost.com
Cost is 1.12 dollars, hence around 66 INR.

You can do the same for SL and the others..feeling lazy.

Edit: General overview from the site above:
The price of gasoline in India is 0.97 EUR per liter which is 3% lower than the average world price of gasoline: 1 EUR. The price of diesel in India is 0.76 EUR per liter which is 16% lower than the average world price. The fuel prices for India are obtained from official data sources and media outlets.

petrol 108 pkr


Is that the price for Premium/ high octane? Which city/town in Pakistan are you talking about? How much is regular unleaded petrol (which I presume, is what the majority of motorists use)?

India 84 INR?? :woot: Where?
There are 45 different rates in India, from Agartala to Trivandrum due to excise, VAT, State levies and so on.

So please specify which city.
I got the sms it did not say which city.

Oslo

Petrol from 14-17kr
Diesel from 12-14kr

depends on which day. Cheapest on Saturday and Monday. 80+ % are taxes. Most expensive petrol in world ?
