    Now, its gonna get even worse. What can I say?


    OT: Today, Kanimozhi and those other scoundrels didn't get the bail. Well done Judge!

    This thread should be stuck! Petrol goes up once in a month and we get updates that its gonna rise again soon! So this will be the most updated thread in xbhp lol

            Petrol Rs. 72
            LPG Rs. 402

                • If anyone here has not tanked up yet... The petrol price hike has only been done in IOCL. HPCL and BPCL are still selling at old rates. Please use the info for your benefit.

                  P.S.: I filled up today in the morning @9.30 for the old price of 72.19 at BPCL CoCo. Not at the new price of 74ish
                  Advice is a form of nostalgia.
                  Dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth.

                    it makes sense to fill up if we do very less mileage or have large a tank.
                    dont get what people get by saving anywhere from 20-40rs in a tank full if their tank is in reserve.

                    The funny part is I see people filling in 1-3ltrs using price hike as an excuse. Anybody wants 6Rs?

                    Not to offend anyone but we waste alot more money else where than in a tank full on the eve of a price hike.
                    Regardless, Life shall go on.

                      we indians have to grow up. you will spend 2k on a jean which is really worth 500rs but not pay the exact price for petrol. :/

                      the govt can help by reducing taxes/duties on petrol but it cant keep shielding everyone from economic realities. it needs money too na. dont talk about corruption blah blah. accept the realities.

                      The govt has better things to do like provide cheap food for the hungry than help us take out our girlfriend for a evening out. if you complain about petrol prices get a diesel bike or a 100cc bike or a electric bike.

                      posting in general.

                        I only filled up (that too my regular quota of 200 bucks ) coz I hit reserve day before yesterday.. Anyways I make it a point to not fill petrol on the eve of a price hike... Too much time wasted, too little money saved/gained. And anyways, filling-up on the eve of a hike is a sure-shot recipe of getting Adulterated fuel.

                          Yep agree ! Only Car owners can make most profit in this situation, I have seen activa owners coming in and filling for 3ltrs , i mean Wt* ??

                          Its nothing related to indians in particular. In general all are penny wise pound foolish.
                          IF you are spending 100Rs even 5 rs saved makes you happy.When spending 1lk for a laptop even if the next shop offers you for ~99k its the same for "many".
                          Its all in mind

                          • I topped up my tank just before price hike yesterday morning by Rs. 500 and saved around Rs15

                              AFAIK Deregularization is not yet implemented completely. What if Centre moved away from the issue?
                              A big amount from this price still goes to the state governments!

                              Correct me if I'm wrong though...
