Edit this postHow Will the Revised SAED Rates Affect Oil and Refining Stocks?
About the Announcement
The Central Government has notified revised Special Additional Excise Duty (SAED) rates applicable for the fortnight beginning July 1, 2026. The revised structure lowers export duties on diesel and aviation turbine fuel (ATF), while reintroducing duty on petrol exports.
The fortnightly review mechanism allows the government to adjust export duties based on global crude oil prices, refining margins and domestic fuel availability.
Revised SAED Rates
| Product | Previous Rate (16 June) |
New Rate (1 July) |
|---|---|---|
| Petrol Exports | ₹0 per litre | ₹4 per litre |
| Diesel Exports | ₹14 per litre | ₹8.50 per litre |
| ATF Exports | ₹12.50 per litre | ₹7.50 per litre |
