OMCs, city gas distributors: Oil marketing companies (OMCs) such as Indian Oil Corporation (IOCL), BPCL, and HPCL will be in focus as the government has increased excise duty on petrol and diesel by ₹2 per litre each to raise about ₹32,000 crore in additional tax revenue.
However, there will be no change in retail prices, as the increase will be adjusted against the price cut that was warranted because of falling international oil prices.
