Jaipur: The difference in gasoline prices between Rajasthan and other states have risen more than Rs 15 per liter.
Apart from the difficulties faced by the people, the state government does not want to reduce VAT on automatic fuel.
After the center reduced customs for gasoline and diesel amounting to Rs 5 and Rs 10, respectively, almost two dozen countries have lowered tariffs but the state government urges the center to reduce interest rates further without reducing VAT, which is the highest country.
In fact, the chairman of the minister on Sunday wrote a letter to the Minister of Home Affairs Amit Shah to further drop customs in automatic fuels.
Sunit Like, President of the Rajasthan Petroleum Dealer Association, asked, “Why does the state government not reduce tariffs to provide assistance to their people.
Most states reduce the level of pushing price differences with more than Rs 15 per liter.” According to industry sources, demand for materials, demand for materials.
The automatic burn has dropped by 20-25% in the state because the vehicle enters Rajasthan passes the filling here.
“The vehicle comes to Rajasthan or passes it avoids filling fuel in the state due to the high tariff.
The state government does not only lose business to another country but makes people suffer,” said a source.
A senior official in commercial tax said the state government thought that since Rajasthan was a big country geographically and that at some point vehicles that passed the state had to recharge here.
“That’s the reason why the government thinks that fuel is difficult it will not be affected because of the high level,” he said.
While industrial people say that the government can get the same income by reducing the level of sales of the car produced.
Fuel, the government has not bought logic, so far.
In his letter, the minister’s chairman said, “Since 2014, the center has increased special customs and excise customs for gasoline from Rs 6 to 11 and Rs 2 to RS 18.
Similarly, additional customs and customs for the Diesel has been carried out From zero to Rs 8 and Rs 2 to Rs 18.
“Gasoline and diesel attracted 36% and 26% of VAT in Rajasthan, which is the highest in this country.
The main reason why people in the state pay the highest automatic fuel rate.
Bagam said that besides ordinary people, the industry was also worst by high automatic fuel rates.
He said if the tariff was not revealed, investors would not come to the country.
“In addition to high fuel prices, the state also imposes the highest rates for electricity.
In this situation, it will be difficult for companies to remain competitive.
They will look for states where the cost of doing business is lower, not Rajasthan,” Like added.
