Did you know that Petrol rates in Pakistan are calculated every single day? Did you know how the prices are calculated? If you did not know, don’t worry because I am going to explain everything to you.
Why oil prices fluctuate
Petrol and diesel prices in Pakistan are determined by the international oil market. The government only charges a fixed amount of tax on fuel, which is currently Rs.15 per litre for petrol and Rs.13 per litre for diesel. This means that when international oil prices go up, so do petrol prices in Pakistan. However, the government does provide some relief to consumers by changing the tax rate on fuel when international oil prices rise sharply.
Importance of OMCs (Organized Marketing Companies)
In Pakistan, the price of petrol is determined by the government through the Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority (OGRA). However, the actual price that consumers pay at the pump is determined by a number of factors, including marketing companies (OMCs). OMCs buy petrol from the refineries and sell it to distributors. Distributors then sell petrol to petrol stations, who then sell it to customers.
Value Added Tax (VAT) on Oil
The government of Pakistan imposes a value-added tax (VAT) of Rs15.66 on every litre of petrol sold in the country. This was the main reason for the recent petrol price hike in Pakistan. The VAT on oil is used to finance social welfare and development programmes in the country. It is also used to subsidise the prices of essential commodities like petrol and diesel. The government has also announced that it will increase the VAT on oil by Rs5 per litre from 1st July, 2019.
What is the base price at which oil is sold?
The price of oil (in dollars) is determined by supply and demand. The price of a barrel of oil, for example, is determined by the cost of extraction, the current supply, and the current demand for oil. The current cost of a barrel of oil will depend on a variety of factors, including where the oil is being extracted and the current supply and demand. Oil is often priced at a premium or discount to the current cost of a barrel of oil, depending on the current supply and demand.
Federal Excise Duty Rates (%) & its applicability on every litre of petroleum product. Section:9) Selling Price = Crude Price + Production Cost + Import Cost + Wholesale Price + Export Price + Excise Duty + VAT
The federal government of Pakistan imposes an excise duty on all petroleum products to recover the cost to the government of the programs and services provided to the petroleum industry and the general public by the government. The current excise duty rates are applicable on every litre of petroleum product. The selling price is the crude price plus the production cost plus the import cost plus the wholesale price plus the export price plus the excise duty plus the VAT of Pakistan.' part of speech: Adverb;Informal' direction' to the company' to reduce' the excise duty
Taxes on Petroleum Products
The federal government of Pakistan has introduced a new tax on petroleum products in an effort to raise revenue and reduce the current account deficit. The new tax will be levied on all petroleum products except diesel, which will continue to be taxed at three percent. The new tax is set to raise approximately $2 billion over the next financial year, which is equivalent to one percent of the country's current account deficit. The introduction of the new tax comes after the government was forced to increase the sales tax from 10 percent to 12 percent in order to curb the current account deficit, which has been widening since the international oil prices began to fall in 2014.
Percentage VAT on Inter State Sales (Import/Export Rate to other states apart from where it was produced)
I have come to realize that the story that many of us tell about the origins of our activism is a story crafted by white men and women for white men and women, a story that is part of the continued erasure of indigenous people, and one that continues to be used to reproduce the violent and untimely death of indigenous women. The truth is that these stories have been told before, and the versions that many of us have been told have been very different from the truth.
