The following year, the cost of gasoline in Russia may grow

The following year, the cost of gasoline in Russia can grow to a maximum of 1.4 rubles. This was announced by Deputy Finance Minister Sergei Shatalov. This will happen as a result of increases in excise taxes on fuel and tax maneuver. "At today's prices plus excise maneuver give a maximum of forty rubles, but in reality it is the maximum fee. This is in view of excise duty. 1.4 rubles - it's a given, and other factors, there is a little bit different figures for gasoline and diesel fuel. But basically, all roughly in half - the contribution of excise duties and maneuver ", - quotes agency Shatalov RIA "Novosti" . Previously, a number of experts were of the opinion that in the worst case scenario, the price of Russian gas stations can surpass Europe - 50 rubles per liter. According to the newspaper "Moskovsky Komsomolets", higher prices for fuel will contribute several factors. In the first place, this increase in the export duty on crude oil from 1 October 2013. In the long term, the Finance Ministry intends to replace the export tax on a new tax, which, in particular, will be different from the tax on the extraction of minerals. According to the experts, in this case, the oil could rise by 40-80%.
