The gas market fluctuates frequently, as any driver knows. The reasons for these fluctuations are complex, as they involve everything from high demand during the holidays to the need for cleaner burning (and more expensive) summer-grade fuel, mandated by regulation.

The union budget is around the curve and there's talk of a cess on diesel cars by a certain section in the power corridors of New Delhi.
