(unfortunately what we are all used to). Also of the total tax of Rs. 35/- per litre about Rs.23/- is State Government Tax (Rs.14.50 directly charged by the state government and Rs.9/- being received from the central government for the states exchequer) and the loans are being cleared only with Rs. 12/- which is the Central government's component.
