I paid Rs00.85(eighty five paise ) per litre in 1971 at Bombay where I had my first job(from 1968) as an engineer in a pvt factory and purchsed a Rajdoot motor cycle after taking a loan of Rs 4000/from my employer.The cost of bike then including registration and insurance was Rs4310/.My monthly bill used to be around Rs18/I still have those bills and reciepts with me.The first hike was to Rs 1:25 then rs3.50 etc etc.,
