New Delhi: In a move that will affect the profit margins of the oil firms, the government introduced a special additional excise duty (SAED) or windfall tax on July 1. As per the notification issued by the ministry of finance, the windfall tax increased domestically produced crude oil by more than a third in line with the rise in international oil prices.

The tax on crude oil produced by firms such as the state-owned Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) was increased to Rs 11,000 per tonne beginning October 16 from Rs 8,000. ()

However, this move of the ministry is unlikely to have an impact on petrol and diesel prices decided by oil marketing companies every midnight. While there were minor changes in petrol, and diesel prices in some cities, major cities including Delhi and Mumbai saw no change in fuel prices. ()

Petrol costs Rs 96.72 per litre while Diesel costs Rs 89.62 per litre in Delhi. In Mumbai, petrol costs Rs 106.31 per litre and diesel Rs 94.27 per litre.
