On the administered price of which of the following articles no subsidy is given?

(A) DAP
(B) ATF
(C) LPG
(D) Kerosene oil

Correct Answer : ATF
Question Asked : SSC Section Officer (Audit) Exam 1997
Explanation : In India, no subsidy is given to Aviation Turbine Fuel (ATF). Indian Oil Aviation Service is a leading aviation fuel solution provider in India and the most-preferred supplier of jet fuel to major international and domestic airlines. Jet fuel is a cclorless, combustible, straight-run petroleum distillate liquid. The highly punitive fiscal regime in India is the primary problem for the aviation sector. The cost of Aviation Turbine Fuel in India is almost 60% higher than international benchmarks. Combined with a high base price, fuel now represents 45-55% of a carrier's operating costs.
