https://www.taxtmi.com/news?id=73294 Excise duty exemption has been extended to higher ethanol-petrol blends, with duty reduced to nil on petrol containing 22 per cent, 25 per cent, 27 per cent and 30 per cent ethanol. The extension broadens the earlier waiver for blends of up to 20 per cent ethanol and reflects the view that blending ethanol with petrol at fuel depots is a manufacturing activity that would otherwise attract excise duty. The measure is a preparatory regulatory step for any future introduction of higher ethanol-content fuels. en-us Thu, 11 Jun 2026 14:31:04 +0530 Thu, 11 Jun 2026 14:31:04 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/news?id=73294 Excise duty exemption has been extended to higher ethanol-petrol blends, with duty reduced to nil on petrol containing 22 per cent, 25 per cent, 27 per cent and 30 per cent ethanol.
