Fuel Excise Duty Cut India
New Delhi: Duniya bhar mein West Asia (Middle East) crisis ki wajah se kachhe tel (crude oil) ki keemtein aag ugal rahi hain, lekin Bharat mein rehne walo ke liye ek sukoon bhari khabar aayi hai. Modi sarkar ne petrol aur diesel par Excise Duty mein badi katauti karne ka faisla kiya hai takki international market ki tezi ka asar seedha apki jeb par na pade.

Kya Hai Naya Faisla?
Finance Ministry ki haliya notification ke mutabiq, sarkar ne:
- Petrol par excise duty mein ₹10 per litre ki kami ki hai.
- Diesel par bhi ₹10 per litre ki excise duty ghata di gayi hai.
Is faisle ke baad petrol par excise duty ab sirf ₹3 per litre reh gayi hai, wahi diesel par ise ghata kar ‘Nil’ (Zero) kar diya gaya hai.
Kyun Liya Gaya Yeh Faisla?
Pichle kuch hafton mein West Asia mein badhte yudh ke halat aur supply chain mein rukawat ki wajah se global crude oil prices $120 per barrel ke paar nikal gaye hain. Agar sarkar tax kam nahi karti, toh petrol-diesel ke daam ₹25-30 tak badh sakte the.
Sarkar ne apna revenue (tax income) kurbaan karke Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) ke nuksaan ko cover kiya hai takki retail prices na badhein. Jahan Pakistan aur kai European deshon mein tel ki keemtein 30-50% tak badh gayi hain, Bharat mein prices ko stable rakha gaya hai.
Export Par Lagaya Tax
Desh mein tel ki kami na ho, isliye sarkar ne ek aur bada kadam uthaya hai. Diesel aur ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) ke export par tax badha diya gaya hai. Iska matlab ye hai ki companies ab munafa kamane ke liye desh ka tel bahar nahi bhej payengi, balki pehle domestic market ki zaroorat poori karni hogi.
Key Highlights:
| Fuel Type | Old Excise Duty | New Excise Duty | Effective Cut |
| Petrol | ₹13 | ₹3 | ₹10 |
| Diesel | ₹10 | Zero | ₹10 |
Conclusion:
International volatility ke beech Bharat sarkar ka ye faisla “People-centric governance” ka ek bada udaharan hai. Halaki international market mein tezi barkarar hai, lekin is tax cut ne filhaal ke liye mehangai ke jhatke ko rok diya hai.
Q1. Kya excise duty ghatne se petrol-diesel sasta ho jayega?
Ans: Filhaal retail prices mein koi badlaav nahi kiya gaya hai. Sarkar ne excise duty isliye ghatayi hai taaki international market mein kachhe tel (crude oil) ki badhti keemton ka asar aam aadmi par na pade. Is tax cut ka fayda Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) ko milega taaki wo purane daam par hi tel bech saken.
Q2. Petrol aur Diesel par kitni excise duty kam hui hai?
Ans: Sarkar ne petrol par excise duty mein ₹10 per litre aur diesel par bhi ₹10 per litre ki katauti ki hai. Ab petrol par excise duty ₹3 reh gayi hai, jabki diesel par ise ‘Zero’ kar diya gaya hai.
Q3. West Asia crisis ka Bharat ke fuel prices se kya lena-dena hai?
Ans: Bharat apni zaroorat ka lagbhag 85-90% kachha tel import karta hai. West Asia (Middle East) mein tanav aur Iran-Israel ke beech yudh jaise halat ki wajah se supply rukne ka darr hai, jisne crude oil ki keemat ko $120 per barrel ke paar pahuncha diya hai.
Q4. Kya desh mein petrol aur diesel ki kami hone wali hai?
Ans: Nahi, Petroleum Ministry ne saaf kiya hai ki Bharat ke paas paryapt (adequate) stock hai. Afwaahon par dhyan na dein, desh mein tel ki koi killat nahi hai aur refineries poori capacity par kaam kar rahi hain.
Q5. Export Tax kyun lagaya gaya hai?
Ans: Sarkar ne diesel aur ATF (Aviation Turbine Fuel) ke export par tax isliye lagaya hai taaki private companies zyada munafe ke chakkar mein tel bahar na bhejein. Isse desh ke andar fuel ki supply hamesha bani rahegi.
