About petrol prices in Shimla

Why Shimla's price differs from other cities
The base refinery cost, central excise (₹19.90/L) and dealer commission (₹3.77/L) are the same across India. What makes Shimla different is Himachal Pradesh's VAT — about ₹14.99 a litre here — plus a little local freight. That is why a tankful in Shimla can cost more or less than the same fuel in a neighbouring state.
