Fuel costs in the united states are at an all-time high, yet they are still far lower than those in India. On march 10, the average price of a gallon of fuel (petrol) was $4.32 (about Rs 330). Gas prices have risen to their highest level in 14 years this week, breaking the previous high of $4.12 set on July 18, 2008. diesel is much more expensive, costing $5.06 per gallon on average.
In the united states, gasoline is marketed in gallons rather than litres. A gallon in the united states is 3.79 litres, while a gallon in the United Kingdom, often known as the Imperial gallon, is 4.55 litres. So, converting a US gallon into a litre and dollars into rupees, a litre of petrol in the US costs Rs 86.98. That is far less than the pricing at which petrol has been sold in india for several months.
In most indian cities, gas costs between Rs 91 and Rs 101. The price per litre in bombay is Rs 110.97; in Delhi, it is Rs 96.42; in Chennai, it is Rs 102.41; and in Kolkata, it is Rs 105.68. Since the central government announced excise tax cuts of Rs 6 per litre on petrol and Rs 11 per litre on diesel on november 5, 2021, prices have remained unchanged. local sales taxes had also been reduced by the majority of state governments.
