Mumbai: State oil marketing companies have revised aviation turbine fuel prices for scheduled domestic operations by 10 per cent to around ₹115 per litre in Delhi. The move signals lifting of a 25 per cent cap on fuel sold to domestic airlines and follows the Union Cabinet’s decision to introduce a ₹10,000 crore aviation turbine fuel price stabilisation fund to shield airlines from volatility. The scheme is optional for airlines and they would have to enter into a memorandum of understanding with oil companies to avail jet fuel at a fixed price. Oil companies would receive interest free advance from government for selling jet fuel below cost.Price Cushion An official had said airlines opting for the scheme would receive ATF for ₹115 per litre insulating them from price fluctuations.The government is yet to issue a notification or policy document regarding the stabilisation fund. An executive from oil marketing company confirmed the price revision that came into effect from Tuesday. In a press statement last week, the government had said ATF price stabilisation support will be in force for three years period with provision for annual review or until the advance amount is fully recovered/settled, whichever is earlier.
