Aviation turbine fuel (ATF) prices have soared to record heights, exceeding Rs 2 lakh per kilolitre as global oil prices climb. This unprecedented surge, the first of its kind, is attributed to the escalating conflict in West Asia.

Rates in Delhi have shot up to Rs 207,341.22 per kilolitre from a previous Rs 96,638.14 per kl. The March 1 increase of 5.7% (Rs 5,244.75 per kl) highlights the volatility of the situation.

This dramatic hike in ATF prices highlights the profound economic impact of international geopolitical tensions, with ripple effects expected across industries reliant on air transport.
