Well ask yourself. Fuel prices go up everyday and we citizens pay more than the price of the fuel as tax. It is time we put some sense into the minds of the ministers on the top. There is a two rupee hike in petrol today. It means that at :
Mumbai petrol will now be sold at Rs 50.51/litre (from Rs 48.38/litre)
Chennai petrol will now be sold at Rs 49.61/litre (from Rs 47.44/litre).
Likewise the other states have their own levies. People pay more tax than they actually pay for the fuel.
My humble suggestion to the GOM is that :- An Indian citizen pays more than the actual fuel price in the name of tax. Taxes calculated for the fuels like petrol, diesel etc must be fixed on PER LITRE basis instead of a percentage of the cost of the fuel per litre. This will ensure that the poor man's interest is protected and at the same time the government is not at loss by cutting taxes. This is in long term interest of all of us.
