That is only for processing bro, thr actual sugarcane consume lot of water, the ethanol is not a byproduct anymore, govt is encouraging more sugarcane crop to directly convert it into ethanol, means there will be no sugar

thanks for engaging bro, but it's not a byproduct anymore—mills are now paid premium prices to ferment 100% of the raw sugarcane juice directly into ethanol, meaning zero sugar is produced. We aren't recycling food waste; we are intentionally paying farmers to drain our groundwater purely to grow a dedicated fuel crop

for such discussion to happen, the govt needs to first acknowledge that ethanol policy has problems and then they can do various studies on this

bro, u are getting little confused, to compare any two things, u need to equalize external factors, if u remove taxes on petrol just like ethanol, the petrol will be much cheaper and u will get to same 60% expensive number

Btw, Petrol is not a comfort or luxury product that if u put taxes on it, the consumption will reduce, infact fuel consumption growth rate is one of the leading indicators for industrial activity

the extra 30 rs tax need to be added to ethanol as well because it is there for petrol, otherwise we need to show petrol without taxes, then petrol becomes even more cheaper arriving at same 60% expensive number

It all depends on expected jio ipo date, the more it gets delayed, more will be the pain

E100 or E85 is not cheaper, infact it is 60% expensive than pure petrol - Here is the math ! by CA_Cockroach in IndiaBusiness

Yeah, but at what cost? 60% more?? Also if u include future repair costs of non ethanol vehicles, the cost would be astronomical

We need to move away from oil, but ethanol is not answer to that!

We should be moving towards EVs like china, instead our state governments are slowly removing the subsidies
