Why Prices Differ Across Cities?
Fuel prices vary due to:
- Central excise duty
- State VAT (Value Added Tax)
- Transportation costs in different cities
Impact on Household Budget
Even small changes in fuel prices affect daily expenses. Higher transport costs for trucks, autos, and buses can push up the prices of vegetables, milk, and other essentials. Fuel rates are therefore closely linked to family budgets.
