India’s August gasoil sales stay weak, gasoline jumps, preliminary data shows
India’s August gasoil consumption declined from July and stayed below pre-COVID 2019 levels as monsoon rains hit mobility and industrial activity, preliminary sales data from state fuel-retailers showed on Wednesday.
Indian state retailers last month sold about 4.9 million tonnes of diesel, up 16% from August 2020 and down about 10% from August 2019, the data showed.
