Though the price has come down by 2-9 paise on few occasions it was never down in the wholesome. The pilot project was run in five cities before replacing the older 15-days price revision with the daily-revision.

After the update on the price of the fuels, a senior executive from the Indian Oil has said, “Previously, everybody felt the pinch when rates would go up by Rs 2 or 3 per litre in one go. Now they are being increased by 1 paisa to 15 paise a litre every day, hikes that have largely gone unnoticed. Many a time, international rates would fall for one week and then rise in the following. So, the net effect of this in the previous price revision policy was status quo or a marginal change in rate.”
