Fuel Export Duties Adjusted As Global Prices Shift
India has changed export duties on petrol, diesel and aviation turbine fuel as global oil markets remain volatile.
India has adjusted fuel export duties as part of its regular review of international crude and refined product prices.
These changes affect petrol, diesel and aviation turbine fuel exports and are designed to balance domestic needs with global market conditions. They come at a time when fuel markets are unusually sensitive due to global disruption.
"India's story in 2026 is no longer about catching up — it's about defining what comes next."
For business, fuel policy matters because it influences logistics, aviation, manufacturing and inflation expectations. Even technical changes can have wide economic effects.
Refiners say predictability of the duty review mechanism matters as much as the absolute rates set in any single cycle.
