Increase in import of crude oil has become a major problem for the
country. Now, the Indian
government is formulating a national policy to promote bio-fuels. A
host of fiscal incentives are
on the cards. The aim is to ensure sustainable production, conversion
and application of bio-fuels. As per a proposal before the Cabinet by
the ministry of new and renewable energy, a
national bio-fuel development board will be set up. The board's
mandate is to partly replace
petrol and diesel for transport and other applications.
The policy will lay emphasis on research and development (R&D) for
production, processing
and commercialisation of bio-fuels like ethanol and jatropha. To
promote bio-fuel development
the government is aiming at fiscal sops. The fiscal sops for the bio-fuel
sector could include
excise and sales tax/VAT exemption. There will be a plan of action to
use waste and degraded
land for cultivation of jatropha. In some states, large-scale jatropha
cultivation has already
begun. This will be expanded in scope by providing economy of scale.
21. The efforts made by the government will reduce he increasing and
worrisome onus of crude
oil imports on the fisc through gradual limited replacement of
petroleum products with bio-fuels
22. Oil extracted from jatropha seed can be used as bio-diesel.
23. Many developed countries extensively use ethanol-blended petro
fuels in the auto sector.
24. India's oil marketing companies have not shown interest in
tapping the market for bio-fuels.
25. India has inexhaustible resource of crude oil.
