[Resolved]  Bharat Petroleum Corporation Limited — Biased/ Artificial shortage at depot before price hike

Address:

Aurangabad, Maharashtra

Dear Sir,
I wish to point out the artificial / biased shortage the Panewadi (manmad) depot portrays just before a price hike. I am a dealer who is supplied fuel from the BPCL Panewadi depot. why is it that only during a price hike, a day before there is supposedly accute shortage of fuel in the depot. such shortage doesnt seem to exist if the fuel prices are going to be lowered the folowing midnight.
Even on[protected], we dealers placed our indents, RTGS for the required amount was taken and yet no invoice was made for my outlet on[protected]. same evening news is flashed all over on news channels of increase in petrol cost by almost Rs.3.00 per lt. if i would have had some stock with me in my retail outlet tanks, the same additional differential amount would have helped me buy more expensive fuel the next day and not have to face the burden of increased investment on purchase of fuel from the depot.
what irks me is the fact that some retails outlets were supplied with fuel and why not mine. i had RTGS taken even 1 day in advance for my other retail outlets and yet they were not supplied on the pretext of some fake fuel shortage. so how come some retail outlets that caried out RTGS on the same day got fuel and my outlet with advance RTGS was not supplied fuel.
it just leads me to beileve that the depot or concerned official enjoys to flex their discretionary powers which actually do not exist with them. this is clearly a case of biased attitude and UN-ETHICAL business.
clearly BPCL is not what it used to be a deacde ago.
I want to know the Panewadi Depot opening and closing stocks on[protected]. can someone help.
thanks
