Now under First Appeal.
The
PIO at BPCL gave totally false and misleading information.
Also under First Appeal.
Not even a single company knows what is the difference between the two product types. HPCL gave a detailed explanation but in general terms. BPCL said that "additives" are mixed. IOC said it is a trade and commercial secret.
None of the three have ever got the "premium" products tested by a laboratory.
The share of the premium product in the total sale has gone upto 30% of the total sold.
For about 6 weeks, I found normal petrol and diesel being sold everywhere.
But just this morning, the HPCL company outlet which I normally visit had a big computer printed poster "Only Premium Petrol and Diesel Available". As per the Manager, these are instructions from the Company. Took his signature on the bill and a picture of the poster (with the manager standing next to it holding a copy of todays newspaper), as proof.
Will file another
RTI application tomorrow.
