I used to fill up petrol of Rs 100 for the complete month.
by Sameer Bhagwat on Jun 04, 2008 05:13 PM  Permalink 

I remember a Hero Puch Moped of 1991 model gave mileage of 90 km /litre. In 1998 petrol was Rs 22 per litre. I used to fill up petrol of Rs 100 for the complete month. Daily usage was hardly 10 km. That meant monthly usage was 300 km only. Enough petrol left to travel another 100 km.

Can any economist explain the facts below.

In 1998 Rs 22/litre
In 2008 Rs 56/litre
