Fuel costs in India have spiked—again. Whether it’s petrol, diesel, or LPG, rising prices are squeezing middle-class and young earners alike. But before you cut back on essentials like groceries or healthcare, here’s how to smartly tweak your budget and keep your financial life stable.
What’s Fueling the Rise?
Global Crude Oil Volatility
OPEC supply cuts and geopolitical tensions are inflating global oil prices.
Rupee Depreciation
A weaker rupee increases import costs, including petroleum.
High Taxes and Retail Margins
Government duties still make up a major chunk of fuel retail prices.
Smart Budget Adjustments That Work
1. Track Your Weekly Fuel Spend
Use Vizzve’s budgeting tool to monitor how much fuel is eating into your expenses.
2. Rethink Commute Habits
Opt for carpooling or public transport twice a week
Combine errands to save trips
Explore hybrid or EV options for long-term savings (financed with Vizzve loans!)
3. Cut Non-Essential Subscriptions
Pause or cancel under-used apps or streaming services temporarily to redirect that cash.
4. Meal Plan to Save on LPG
Batch cooking and meal planning reduce fuel and food waste—double win.
5. Create a ‘Fuel Buffer’
Allocate a small buffer (₹500–₹1,000/month) for unpredictable fuel spikes.
