    Such price hike and short supply takes place only in India.
    Other governments globally try their best to act according to the situation by substituting from the reserve oil stored.

    People,

    Iranian attack on Saudi oil storage facility increased International Crude oil price by more than 10 % in a day...

    They are down 5% since then....So Petroleum prices should go down in next few days...

    We have highest taxes and levies on Petroleum products in the world...US Petroleum prices are much lower than India...India should reduce taxes on petroleum products...to be competitive in the world..

    ...Yak...Takk...
