The Centre has lower windfall tax on petroleum crude to zero from ₹1,850 per tonne, efficient from September 18, a notification issued on Tuesday confirmed.
The federal government critiques the windfall tax each fortnight, and the lower comes after a big decline in crude costs.
International benchmark Brent crude costs have fallen to under $75 a barrel from over $92 a barrel in April.
