Civil aviation ministry seeks transparency in ATF pricing

The civil aviation ministry has written to the petroleum and natural gas ministry for transparency in pricing of aviation turbine fuel (ATF) to bring down prices of air tickets and improve connectivity.
"We have written to petroleum ministry for regulating the prices of ATF manufactured by oil PSUs through Petroleum and Natural Gas Regulatory Board, which at present are not transparent at all," Civil Aviation Secretary K N Srivastava told reporters here on Saturday.
The ministry has also urged for open access to oil infrastructure at airports for private and foreign players to store imported ATF which is less expensive than the domestic jet fuel.
