Why Petrol Price is So High In India

It is a fact the the petrol prices are going high everyday in India when the prices in other countries are very low. Anybody thought about why it is like this?. Here are my thoughts regarding this.

The basic Petrol production cost will only be around Rs 16 Per Liter. Then how is it possible to have the petrol price as high as More than Rs 70 Per Liter?. The answer is simple , the rest of the price amount is comprises of different type of taxes like center tax, excise duty , state tax etc?.

But why the government is imposing huge tax on this item?

The reason is very simple , this is one of the direct source from which the government can deduct tax directly from the consumer and the consumer has to pay the petrol price in order to proceed to the next step (ie filling the fuel and running the vehicle) as he don't have any other way.

But why is it like this and what is the root cause?

Our system is so corrupt that the Government is finding it really difficult to collect the tax directly from individuals and organizations (only very few percentage is paying tax correctly which is a fact). This task gets more challenging when it comes to a country like India where the population size is very high.  So deducting tax from an item like petrol (which affects all our day to day activities from agriculture , transport to all other fields like IT) is one of the easiest methods. This also in turn affects the prices of all other items and is a cyclic process.

How to fix This Problem

AADHAR is one of the the First silent step by the Government towards fixing this problem. Once it is implemented  all over  India correctly, we can see the petrol prices (and other associated problems) in a steady State.

But how much time do we need to wait is another question..

Hope this observation makes sense

Physics Software Engineering and Project Management

Normally customers contact me for solutions like computer interfacing software, device controlling software, Embedded/Robotics software, video analysis software etc. Although I am a system side C++ Programmer by profession, to do these type of tasks , you should not only be just a C++ programmer, you should study how the system works first. This is where the role of Physics and other associated disciplines is coming into picture. 


This is how I approach these types of Projects/Problems.

1.  Get the requirement from the customer.
2.  Get a Big picture of the system about how it works(Physics/Science).

3.  Study the overall picture about the existing system.
4.  What Technology is applied to to the present system and its pros and cons.
5.   Propose new solutions based on the requirements.

I Normally take up the project if the first 4 steps are realized no matter how hard that system is and if the lab/simulation conditions are within my reach.

In Short 

"Your Project will be a success if you see the big picture of the system correctly.."

Project Success Rate : 95% .

Please be in Touch with our Company KTS InfoTech if you need solutions similar to the above scenarios.     

Do you Really need a Degree to succeed in your profession

It seems that what ever we are studying for our Bachelors as well as as Masters will be useless for most of the people.. In fact some of them are wasting at least 6 years of our life. If they can do some fruitful work within that time as this guy did (see the link below) , then it will be great (less education investment, more productive time, more passionate )

Now a days after the B.Tech most the guys are joining in Banking sector or similar fields. Don't know what Engineering has to do with Banking...
