Re: Petrol prices update thread

Shell price is almost same as other bunk. Only assurance I get after filling from shell is I won't be cheated. They won't put less quantity.

From the last ten years i have filling from the same bunk. Moreover the bunk is the best station in here. And also it is the largest.

I guess from now onwards I'll get 8 ltrs for 500rs/-...
In delhi I feel fuel quality and quantity of HP is better than Indian oil, BP and IBP. I always get less mileage specially whenever I use BP and IBP.

Shell fuel is cleaner than HP and other such bunks, since I started fueling at shell a year back I haven't required carb cleaning till now, moreover they don't cheat by filling lesser fuel and give proper receipt without even asking, and the employees are also very polite and well trained, other bunks the employees talk like rowdys and act like they are doing us a favor by giving us petrol.

Re: Petrol prices update thread

Well, I'm not giving any points to current Govt as that article clearly states, rates ought have been far less.

And poor Indian citizens are still praising the deregulation blah blah ...

Adding to that
+ proper waiting queues and exit paths at most of the pumps
+ air-pumps almost always available/working

And they make/ask you to get down from the motorcycle, not sure why

This reduces the riders exposure to breathing gasoline vapors by increasing the distance from the fill point*

This reduces the possibility of the riders skin and clothing being exposed to fuel splash and overflows if they occur*

Should a refueling fire start, the rider's ability to quickly separate themselves from the fire is improved if they are already off the motorcycle*

If a fire forced the rider to jump off the bike, the risk of the motorcycle falling over and spreading the fire is greatly reduced.

I too find the quality and quantity of HP better than BP/Indian Oil. Don't know the reason but have experimented a few times. Maybe my bike's engine has got acclimatised to HP better!

Re: Petrol prices update thread

I will be very happy to see the petrol price comes to those lovely days of 45 wow those days were so good. But coming down to 60 will be also good in the pockets of all Indians but I really wonder when that day will come when we get those days back.
Also I would like to add some good information here as I read it somewhere so thought of sharing it here.
Never get 100 200 300 400 or further 600 rs of petrol. Always get 119 211 313 rs of petrol as all the petrol pumps have got a setting done in there petrol pumps.
Like for instance I went to a petrol pump to get 522 rs of petrol filled I told the person also but he filled 500rs worth petrol and the when I told him that I told you that I wanted 522 of petrol he said sorry forgot where as there was no one in the pump except my bike. Then that day I realised there is something fishie regarding this. Try it. When ever we go to get are tanks filled someone or the other do come to distract us. Notice this I have been doing.

Petrol, diesel price cut likely as New Year's gift:

Petrol and diesel may get cheaper from midnight as the government is pushing the state-run oil marketing firms to pass on the benefit of falling global prices to consumers as a New Year's gift, officials said.

Re: Petrol prices update thread

Crude oil prices have came down to $60 from $110 But Petrol has come down from 75 to 63 Only, People never think of this and get happy with the Little Lollipops that these gov. give to us

Hence, We don't have any choice to be happy with thinking that at least something is cut down
