Reportedly india will switch to the world's cleanest petrol and diesel from april 1 as it leapfrogs straight to Euro-VI emission compliant fuels from Euro-IV grades now a feat achieved in just three years and not seen in any of the large economies around the globe.

india will join the select league of nations using petrol and diesel containing just 10 parts per million of sulphur as it looks to cut vehicular emissions that are said to be one of the reasons for the choking pollution in major cities.

 

Sanjiv Singh, Chairman of indian oil Corp (IOC) the firm that controls roughly half of the country's fuel market, said almost all refineries began producing ultra-low sulphur BS-VI (equivalent to Euro-VI grade) petrol and diesel by the end of 2019 and oil companies have now undertaken the tedious task of replacing every drop of fuel in the country with the new one.

 

He said "We are absolutely on track for supplying BS-VI fuel from april 1. Almost all refineries have begun supplying BS-VI fuel and the same has reached storage depots across the country".
