Since June 16, all Fuel stations across India have switched to daily fuel price revisions in Petrol and diesel at 6 am daily based on the average daily fuel price in the international fuel market and the real time currency exchange rate. Earlier such fuel price revisions were started fortnightly as a pilot scheme in five major cities, including Chandigarh, Puducherry, Jamshedpur, Udaipur and Visakhapatnam on May 1, 2017.

This ‘dynamic fuel pricing’ is primarily aimed at bringing more transparency in the fuel pricing mechanism and reducing acute volatility in domestic petrol and diesel fuel price. But this rational move is creating a big challenge for Indian people to track the real time petrol and diesel prices every day. Therefore, all major oil companies of India such as Indian Oil, Hindustan Petroleum (HPCL) and Bharat Petroleum (HPCL) have come out to curb the situation with some bold initiatives for circulating current information on daily petrol and diesel price. Let’s have a look at these facilities below:

All nationwide oil companies have launched their own Petrol Diesel Fuel price App which can provide current information to users about fuel stations in a specific region and latest updates of daily fuel price revision. Indian Oil offers ‘Fuel@IOC’ mobile app to provide a daily update on the fuel price revisions in all cities. BPCL also provides similar app known as ‘SmartDrive’, as well as HP mobile app, is called ‘MYHPCL’. These apps can be easily downloaded from Google Play or Apple Store.

But there are some flaws to use above facilities, so you should be careful while checking the rates because;

• As of now, only a few (20 %) petrol pumps are providing above automated facilities.
• Above facilities may be cumbersome for you to send SMS and wait for the response from an automated server.
• No information about discounts, deals or offers at a particular fuel station is provided.
• No comparison related to cheaper fuel prices, on-the-spot facilities or amenities available on various fuel stations are provided.

Therefore, By reviewing all above facts, Idea Holding LTD has launched their exclusive creation known as ‘PetroBuddy’, Petrol diesel fuel price App offering many unique features to its users as highlighted below:
