Sale of O2 Proceeds at ten times That the Predetermined Price in Hyd

HYDERABAD: Even though Hyderabad’s oxygen requirement has largely stabilised within the last week — using tonnes being sent in from different nations — the price of oxygen is still dangerously high throughout town, state industry sources. A fast market survey by TOI demonstrated that traders are still promoting liquid oxygen for anywhere between $150 and Rs 170 per cubic meter (CUM) — over 10 times the price adjusted by the National Pharmaceutical Pricing Authority (NPPA) — whereas refilling plants will be quoting Rs 1,500 and up to get a jumbo cylinder. The standard price of utilizing those electrons (46.7 litres) is not greater than Rs 400 to Rs 600. “Earlierwe used to get 400 to 500 individuals gearing up to refill cylinders daily. That number has fallen to 100 (or less) now. Likewise, together with hospitals, the condition has decreased by about 40 percent. Nevertheless, manufacturers are mentioning an artificial need and charging exorbitant prices,” alleged that an executive by a refilling plant at Jalpally attributing this to the higher price of refilling. Another refilling plant at Miyapur, which TOI predicted, stated:”We’re receiving supplies from different nations, so, the price is quite high. We cannot offer it for less than Rs 1,500 (to get a jumbo).” Equipped with a shortfall of roughly 100 to 150 tonnes of oxygen month, Telangana began sourcing it in different areas of the nation — chiefly Odisha, Chhattisgarh, as well as Andhra Pradesh. “The extra supplies have helped stablise the need. But because we’re not having the ability to have refills at a reduce price, we are not having the ability to pass the benefit to our clients,” said a dealer of oxygen electrons from Mehdipatnam asserting that some crops — such as GST — are still piling to Rs 2,000 to get a refill. “We just add transport cost for this and also an additional Rs 100, while committing the items. But that is quite steep for a few patients,” he explained. Producers, but insist they are sticking into the rulebook. “We’re currently selling at Rs 15.22 a CUM and more,” explained ESK Sastry, general director at Inox Air Products Ltd..
