Fuel pricing remains under focus as states review tax structures amid global crude oil volatility.
In Himachal Pradesh, the state assembly has passed a provision allowing the government to impose a cess of up to ₹5 per litre on petrol and diesel. Officials said the actual levy may vary depending on economic conditions and policy decisions.
Experts noted that fuel prices in India are influenced by global oil rates, currency exchange fluctuations and state-level taxes.
Authorities across states are closely monitoring the situation as rising fuel costs could impact inflation and transportation expenses in the coming weeks.
