Petrol pumps across India may soon offer consumers a wider range of ethanol-blended petrol options — similar to choosing products off a supermarket shelf — allowing vehicle owners to pick fuel variants based on engine compatibility, Mint reported on Thursday, citing people aware of the development.
According to the report, the government has advised state-run oil marketing companies Indian Oil Corp. Ltd, Bharat Petroleum Corp. Ltd and Hindustan Petroleum Corp. Ltd, along with private fuel retailers Jio-bp Mobility, Nayara Energy and Shell, to begin work on infrastructure for dispensing E20, E22, E25 and E30 fuels.
