just an illustration ….with 100 rupee petrol…

When you purchase petrol in Andhra Pradesh, the ₹100 you pay includes several components: the base price, central government taxes, state government taxes, and dealer commissions. Here’s a detailed breakdown:

1. Central Government Taxes

The central government imposes excise duties on petrol, which comprise:

Basic Excise Duty (BED): A fixed amount per litre.

Special Additional Excise Duty (SAED): An additional levy per litre.

Agriculture Infrastructure and Development Cess (AIDC): Aimed at funding agricultural infrastructure projects.

Road and Infrastructure Cess (RIC): Allocated for road development and maintenance.

As of May 2022, the total central excise duty was approximately ₹19.90 per litre.

 

2. State Government Taxes in Andhra Pradesh

Andhra Pradesh levies the following taxes on petrol:

Value Added Tax (VAT): 31% of the base price plus ₹4 per litre.

Road Development Cess: ₹1 per litre.

These state taxes are applied sequentially, meaning the VAT is calculated on the base price plus the ₹4 per litre, and then the Road Development Cess is added.

 

3. Dealer Commission

A portion of the petrol price goes to dealers as their commission, which is a fixed amount per litre and varies periodically.

Illustrative Breakdown for ₹100 Petrol Purchase

Assuming the following approximate values:

Base Price (including freight): ₹50.10 per litre.

Central Excise Duty: ₹19.90 per litre.

Dealer Commission: ₹3.80 per litre.

 

 

Calculating State Taxes:

1. Add Fixed VAT: Base Price + ₹4 = ₹50.10 + ₹4 = ₹54.10.

2. Calculate 31% VAT: 31% of ₹54.10 = ₹16.77.

3. Add Road Development Cess: ₹1.

4. Total State Taxes: ₹16.77 (VAT) + ₹1 (Cess) = ₹17.77.

Total Price Calculation:

Base Price: ₹50.10.

Central Taxes: ₹19.90.

State Taxes: ₹17.77.

Dealer Commission: ₹3.80.

Total: ₹91.57.

To reach a ₹100 selling price, the base price would need to be adjusted accordingly.

 

Tax Proportions in Andhra Pradesh

In Andhra Pradesh, taxes constitute a significant portion of the petrol price. For every ₹100 spent on petrol:

Total Taxes: Approximately ₹52.40.

Central Taxes: Around ₹19.90.

State Taxes: Approximately ₹32.50.

This means that over half of the amount you pay for petrol goes towards various taxes and cesses imposed by both central and state governments.

Please note that these figures are illustrative and based on data available up to March 2025. Actual prices and tax components may vary due to fluctuations in crude oil prices, changes in tax rates, and other market dynamics.
