According to a price notification by state-owned fuel dealers, aviation turbine fuel (ATF) - the fuel that makes planes fly - was raised by Rs 2,258.54 per kilolitre, or 2%, to Rs 1,12,924.83 per kilolitre in the national capital. The price of ATF has risen after the sharpest ever spike of 18.3 percent (Rs 17,135.63 per litre) on March 16.
Prices had been frozen since November 4 in anticipation of assembly elections in five states, during which time crude oil prices had risen by nearly USD 30 per barrel. The hike in fuel costs, according to Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, is due to disruptions in supply chains and the resulting increase in global oil prices as a result of the crisis in Ukraine.
Rates have been raised across the country, and they differ from state to state based on the amount of municipal taxation. This is the seventh price rise since the end of a four-and-a-half-month rate revision break on March 22.
