Amid all the reasons given for Kohli's retirement from Tests be it captaincy issue or poor form, no one has talked about the new BCCI rules that family cannot stay with the player for more than 15 days on a tour..maybe Virat wanted this to change? Food for thought..
Just do it guys! Let's break the Auto industry's lobby and government's arrogance. We buyers have the ultimate power! Let's make it a trend. Let's stop buying the Cars!
DONOT BUY A CAR.
UNLESS THE FUEL POLICY OF NEXT 15 YEARS IS CLARIFIED BY GOVT.
or if Govt announces the insurance and compensation for any damages or repair or adhoc expenses of increasing ethanol blending.
Just DONT BUY A CAR.
POSTPONE ALL CAR BUYING TILL CLARITY.
Earlier my full tank used to cost ₹3300.
Now the same tank costs ₹3567.
That’s already ₹267 extra.
But the real damage is mileage.
Earlier:
16.5 kmpl average
Now:
11.5 kmpl average
If I drive 1,650 km a month:
Earlier fuel needed:
1,650 ÷ 16.5 = 100 litres
Now fuel needed:
1,650 ÷ 11.5 = 143 litres
Extra fuel consumption:
43 litres more every month.
At around ₹101.90/litre,
monthly extra expense = ₹4,382 more.
So effectively:
₹3300 tank became ₹3567
+
₹4382 extra monthly fuel burn because mileage crashed.
Middle class is paying more money to travel the same distance.
@mainbhiengineer@rish_ranjan Authorities want to earn through taxes with cars, earn registration cost, earn billions from fuel too but isn’t ready to provide us compliant fuel because it will hurt profits which is offset by the supply & weakened rupee.
Using farmers & pollution as an excuse.
Never imagined that one day we will be paying
- Base price
- OMC cost and margin
- Excise Duty
- Petrol pump dealer commision
- VAT
And still won't be getting pure petrol for our cars but only E20 and above, so let's add more cost to it.
- less mileage
- more maintenance in non-compliant vehicles
- more water consumption
So, basically we created a whole bunch on new issues to solve one issue just by poor policy planning and implementation.
INTERESTING: If Nehru became PM only after the 1952 election as is now being claimed , then was Sardar Patel never really Deputy PM and India’s first Home Minister since he died in 1950?
The trouble with cherry-picking history is that it eventually contradicts itself.🙏
Sir, This isn't done because of environment. Authorities aren't that smart to think about environment.
It is done to ki!! the used car market, make car buying thing a 6-8 year affair for repeated sales and to help local players in EVs because of their investments.
Last, this latest knee jerk reaction is because we are not getting cheap fuel from Russia anymore and not making HUGE profits like before and hence we are behaving slightly bewildered.
Auto Mainstream Media and Brands can't speak much because they need to do 'dhando'.
@_pitch__perfect Hahaha. What about the faulty team selection Gambhir has been doing in the test team because of which we have lost back to back home test series.. should the selection committee also say in press conference that he should select better.. some things should stay behind curtains..
If Pant’s batting approach is questioned every day by Coach by pointing out “Should play the situation” in Press Conference better for Coach to resign. A Test Legend, who is India’s best batter in last decade can’t be questioned like that.
@IndianOilcl Genius People
We have petrol pump with E85 petrol - but not a single car which runs on it
We have millions of vehicles running on E5, E10 petrol - but there is not a single petrol pump with these fuels. 👏👏
