Diesel and Petrol

What are the main differences between diesel and petrol?


Conventional diesel and petrol are both produced from mineral oil, but using different refining methods. While diesel is in principle easier to refine than gasoline, it needs to be cleaned from more pollutants to ensure that tailpipe emissions remain as low as possible. However, diesel contains more energy than petrol and the vehicle’s engine combustion process is more efficient, adding up to higher fuel efficiency and lower CO2 emissions when using diesel.
Diesel versus petrol engines

By virtue of the combustion process and the overall engine concept, a diesel engine is more efficient than a spark-ignited petrol engine having the same power output when the engines are installed in a vehicle having a similar mass.

This results in the diesel having lower fuel consumption - a common margin is roughly 40% more km travelled for an efficient turbo-diesel engine. The calorific value of diesel fuel is roughly 45.5 MJ/kg (megajoules per kilogram), slightly lower than petrol which is 45.8 MJ/kg. However, diesel fuel is denser than petrol and contains about 15% more energy by volume (roughly 36.9 MJ/litre compared to 33.7 MJ/litre). Accounting for the difference in energy density, the overall efficiency of the diesel engine is still some 20% greater than the petrol engine, despite the diesel engine also being heavier.

Of course, there are many developments in technology for both the diesel and petrol engine that have been introduced to improve efficiency, fuel consumption and performance and technology such as HCCI (Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition) which will be introduced in both petrol and diesel engines in the short-term to help improve overall efficiency and to reduce CO2 emissions.

Note: 1kg of diesel burnt under ideal conditions will produce 2.68kg of CO2. 1kg of petrol burnt under ideal conditions will produce 2.3kg of CO2

Petrol versus diesel: refinery processing
Crude oil contains hundreds of different types of hydrocarbons all mixed together and, depending on the source of the crude oil, different impurities. In order to produce petrol, diesel or any other oil-based products, the hydrocarbons have to be separated, by refining of one type or another:

Different hydrocarbon chain lengths all have progressively higher boiling points, so they can all be separated by a process known as distillation. In a refinery, in one part of the process, crude oil is heated and the different hydrocarbon chains are pulled out as a vapour according to their vaporisation temperatures and then recondensed. For example:

Petrol - motor fuel:

* Liquid
* mix of alkanes and cycloalkanes (5 to 12 carbon atoms)
* boiling range = 40°C to 205°C

Gas oil or Diesel - motor fuel:

* Liquid
* alkanes containing 12 or more carbon atoms
* boiling range = 250°C to 350°C

Kerosene - fuel for jet engines:

* Liquid
* mix of alkanes (10 to 18 carbons) and aromatics
* boiling range = 175°C to 325°C

Of course, after distillation, there are various techniques that are used to convert some fractions to others:

* cracking, which breaking large hydrocarbon chains into smaller ones
* unification – which combines smaller hydrocarbon chains to make larger ones
* alteration – which re-arranges various pieces to make desired hydrocarbons

For example, this allows a refinery to turn diesel fuel into petrol fuel, depending on the demand for petrol. Refineries will also combine various fractions (processed, unprocessed) into mixtures to make desired products. For example, different mixtures of hydrocarbon chains can create petrol with different octane ratings.

Distillated and chemically processed fractions are treated to remove impurities, such as organic compounds containing sulphur, nitrogen, oxygen, water, dissolved metals and inorganic salts.

Unique Identification Authority of India : UIDAI

India will become the first country in the world to issue a unique identity number for each of its
residents from February 2011 which will allow an on-line verification, a top official said Wednesday.



"We will start issuing the unique number by February 2011," Nandan Nilekani, chairman of the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI), said here at a talk organised in the Parliament House Library. He said that giving a unique number to each Indian was a big challenge as UIDAI will make sure that there is no duplication. The project estimated to cost around Rs.30,000 crore will cover the entire population of the country.

Nilekani said that biometrics will be used to prevent duplication and the authority will keep the same kind of information as is mentioned on voter I-card. "We want to keep minimal information," he said, adding that there will be no invasion of privacy.

He said the unique number will enable the UIDAI to verify identity of a citizen online and India will become the first country in the world to have such a system. "No other country has done it. It will be gateway to open up public services to the people." He said under the present system, verification process is being done over and over again.

Terming the project a "massively complex project," he said the authority will use state governments, banks, insurance companies and other such institutions as partners in enrolment. The unique number will not give any rights or entitlements but can be later used for the purposes of citizenship, he said.

"It is a voluntary number. Even infants will get it," he said, adding that identity of mother or guardian will be used alongside in case of children as biometrics are not fully developed in them.

Nilekani said the verification process will be kept pro-poor and inclusive.
"I think it is a very powerful and inclusive idea. It will help the poor have better access to public services and will be a great enabler for their financial inclusion.

The flagship welfare schemes of the government can be made more efficient," he said, adding that itwill help strengthen national security, reducing fraud and increasing tax collection.

Giving an illustration of the use of the unique number in banking sector, he said it can help people make money withdrawals easier virtually leading to an ATM in every village.

Nilekani, who took questions at the end of his talk, said the country should
formulate a comprehensive privacy law. The talk, organised by the Bureau of Parliamentary Studies and Training of the Lok Sabha secretariat, was attended by several MPs and officials.

How the card can be multipurpose for us:

• Debit Card (Before transaction the person has to enter its last four digits of
virtual Debit cards)

• Credit Card (before transaction the person have to enter its last four digits of virtual cards)

• No need to keep foreign currency or Indian rupee in India.

• Bank Account opening, No need to file any paper just swap your and guarantor's card.

• In NREGA the contractor will file your card code in his register and you will get your payment in bank account.

• Employee just enter his/ her UID in the time of joining, his/ her all record will update with current employer.

• Just fill only your UID card no. in Online Tax returns; it will automatically deduct your tax after rebate (LIC, 80G, and Investment). Here no need to get refund and govt. can save thousands of cr. Rupees of interest.

• During the shopping in your area you have to swap your card and insert the pin for transactions. For this we have to reduce transition charges till 0.5%.

• This card will be our driving license. On this card a picture will be published of authorized driving vehicle. (White car for pvt., and yellow car for commercial).

• Our all the personal records like, height, finger prints and education will be feed on it.

• Card holder can cast his/ her vote any where in India through ATM or any
information kiyosk with the help of this card. (The person will enter its card in voting machine and soon all candidate lists will be available of his/ her locality in touch panel voting machine.

• No one cay buy or sell any property without UID card. Through it we can control the black money and confirm that how much property is belongs to the person. Govt. can provide subsidy to whom have not any flat or property and get extra tax who have already flat or property.

• Through this card govt. will deduct Electricity bill, Water bill, house tax or other bills itself. No need to go anywhere to submit your bill. (It should be applicable in A B and C category of Cities).

Tax Planning - 2009/2010

Tax Planning Procedure,

I think this is the right time to dicuss some details regarding Tax-planning.
First we know about the different Tax-Slab available in India hereby,

up to 1.6 lakhs - No Tax
1.6 lakhs to below 3.0 lakhs - 10%
3.0 lakhs to below 5.0 lakhs - 20%
Above 5.0 lakhs - 30%

First thing in this calculation is calculating Taxable-Amount.

Taxable Amount = Gross Salary - Investment(Tax Rebate)

Gross salary is the Take-Home Salary, not your offer-letter salary.

So, we need to concentrate over the Investment part.

1. First thing is the 80c/80cc's maximum limit is 1.0 lakhs
2. Next we can deduct out HRA amount starightly.
3. There is a limit of Rs.10000 for preminum paid to Medical Insurance.

Its our responsibility to utilize the 80C limit fully by investing in periodic basic,

Below example are made according to monthly-basis investment,

Provident Fund - 1600.00
Public Provident Fund - 2000.00
ELSS - 3000.00
ICICI Pru Tax Plan (G) - 1000.00
HDFC Tax Saver (G) - 1000.00
SBI Magnum Tax Gain Scheme (G) - 1000.00
Insurance - 1500.00
Money Back Insurance - 1500.00


For example if your Gross salary is 4.5lk

Investments
80c/80cc
Provident Fund - 19200.00
Public Provident Fund - 24000.00
ELSS(Mutual Fund) - 36000.00
Insurance - 18000.00
----------------------------------------
Total - 97200.00
----------------------------------------

HRA
Total(7000*12) - 84000.00

Medical Insurance
Total(800*12) - 9600.00

So, Taxable Amount = 450000 - (97200.00+84000.00+9600.00) = 259200.00

This amount will come under the Slab-2, so tax to be paid is 25920.0(annually)

Savings vs Investment vs Property

Most of them struggling in understanding difference between Savings,Investment and Property.

Before getinto these three giants we need to keep keep ourself in a safer side.For that ensure these following points carefully,

1.Take term-policy for all members of your family.Since term policy is not come under money-back policy, premium paid will be somewhat negligible only.
2.First close all your standing debt like personal-debt,personal-loan and credit-card loan.Exception is there for home loan only.
3.Take Medical-Insurance for all your family members.(Carefully read the documents before signing in it)

Once all the above above things are successfully achieved,then we get into 3 Giants.
Savings is the excess-money attained after spending to our monthly needs.(Eg. Bank-deposit,Bonds)
Investment is the process of allowing our money to grow, in order to attain some long-time goal.(Eg. Stock-Market,Mutual Fund,Currency Trading)
Property is some what like permanent-product that is owned by us.(Eg.Land,Home,Gold,Vehicles,Household things)
Now we can easily relate the 3-Giants as,
Savings and Investment are done in-order to buy a Product.

Then what is the relationship between the Savings and Investment?Why we are having these two things separately?
Before answering this questions we get some knowledge about the Inflation with one example.
For Example,By today you are buying a Product-1 for Rs.100 with inflation rate of 8.
So we need to pay Rs.108 for buying the same product after one year period.Reason for this is price appreciation rate will be equal to inflation rate.

If you make a close look on it inflation-rate and the bank deposit-rate will be some what equal.So Bank-deposit is meant to provide a money that suite to our current inflation-rate.That's the reason most of them are stepping into investment side inorder to attain some more profit as compared to inflation.
One dark-side of the Investment are, there may be possibility of getting our money deprecated in short-term.

If you started thinking about investment come-up with some long-term plan like 3-5 years inorder attain minimum guarantee.

Need a change in School Education System

As per my perspective instead of making our people to accept free offer, We better offer them them free education.Eventhough this is previously available in our current system. Most of them preffer to put his steps into private schools.
There is two reason behind this, one is the "Quality of Education" and another one is "There Dignity among the society".By utilizing the mindset of parents, most of the private schools put-up the fees in the extream level.so Getting a seat in private school is became "Shining star in Sky" for finacially low-grade people childrens.And one-step-ahead some of the schools are providing the bills as govt specified amount by collecting extra amount.

In order to overcome these senarios we have to change two bullet-points they are,
1.Increasing infrastructure and normalizing the standards of Govt.Schools.
2.Normalizing the admission process in Private schools and create a slab for every financial-level.

Slab will consists of three level(Somewhat like DoTE in engineering admission)
a)Slab-2 will be the exact fees of what specified by schools(40%).
b)Slab-3 will be the double the fees of what specified by schools(30%).
c)Slab-1 will be offered free of education fees of what specified by schools(30%).

So that childrens from different financial level will get the same quality of education.And schools also getting same level of revenue.One important thing is creation of slab should be purely based on the financial-level only. We should not allow any caste-wise reservation here.I am not sure this will be implemented in our education system or not, This will be fully my imagination, about how to make my INDIA in Developed Countries list.

Thank you for reading.
