Here's how the pricing of kerosene was typically determined:
- International Crude Oil Prices: A significant component of the kerosene price is influenced by international crude oil prices. When global crude oil prices rise or fall, it can impact the cost of kerosene in India.
- Refining Costs: The cost of refining crude oil to produce kerosene, including processing and transportation, is factored into the final price.
- Government Subsidy: Kerosene is typically sold at subsidized rates in India to ensure affordability for the masses, especially in rural and economically disadvantaged areas. The government provides a subsidy to keep the retail price lower than the actual cost of production and distribution.
- State Taxes: State governments in India also impose taxes on petroleum products, including kerosene. The tax rates can vary from one state to another, leading to price differences across states.
- Distribution and Retail Margins: The costs associated with distributing kerosene, including transportation and dealer margins, are included in the final retail price.
- The government, particularly the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas, often sets the maximum retail price (MRP) for kerosene to ensure affordability. The subsidy component is reimbursed to oil marketing companies by the government to bridge the gap between the cost of production and the subsidized selling price.
It's important to note that government policies and pricing mechanisms can change over time.
