The pricing of fuels in India falls under the regulation of the central government and is influenced by factors like excise duty, base prices, and price caps. The central government manages the collection of excise duty, while the collection of Value Added Tax (VAT) is the responsibility of individual states. As a result of varying VAT rates imposed by each state, fuel prices may diverge accordingly.
