Why Kollam's price differs from other cities
The base refinery cost, central excise (₹15.80/L) and dealer commission (₹2.58/L) are the same across India. What makes Kollam different is Kerala's VAT — about ₹21.91 a litre here — plus a little local freight. That is why a tankful in Kollam can cost more or less than the same fuel in a neighbouring state.
