Effective date for revision will be the date on which the prices are increased/decreased, which is to be substantiated with documentary evidence. (b) 10 represents the laden weight of the truck in MT. (c) 4 represents the distance of 4 KM which a truck of 10 MT capacity can run with 1 Liter of HSD/ (Loaded or otherwise) for the purpose of these calculations. (d) The contractor will submit documentary evidence with regard to revision of diesel cost prevailing at Kalol (e) Such escalation shall be claimed by the carrier separately as a separate item. (f) The distance for the formula for escalation of rate on account of fuel cost escalation shall be considered only one way i.e. from IFFCO KALOL to the District/Destination where the material to be delivered.

INDIAN FARMERS FERTILISER COOPERATIVE LIMITED KALOL UNIT The escalation shall be considered as under: If there are increases in the prices which are less than 5%, the escalation shall not be considered. When the total increase in the diesel price reaches 5% or more, the escalation shall be paid with effect from the date of increase of diesel price by 5%. Base price for first escalation shall be the price prevailing at the Petrol Pump, Opp. IFFCO, Kalol Plant as on the date of enquiry.

For example, if the base price of diesel is Rs.20/- per liter escalation will be paid only when the price reaches Rs. 21/- per liter i.e. 20/- plus 5% of 20/-. So 20+1 Rs.21/-. The effective date shall be considered as the date on which the price has increased to Rs.21/- per liter even though the price of diesel increased twice in between to Rs. 20.50 and Rs.20.75 per liter previously. The next escalation shall be considered when the diesel price reaches Rs. 22.05 per liter and the base price shall be Rs. 21/- per liter. De-escalation shall also be considered on the reverse side on the above basis. 6.03 Proportionate incidence due to statutory increase or decrease in the diesel cost shall be to the account of IFFCO effective from the date of such statutory change in the diesel rate, except in case where there is a statutory reduction in diesel cost, in which case reduction shall be passed on to IFFCO. 6.04 Any request for increase in rates on any account of increase in diesel cost should be substantiated by any documents as may be called for by IFFCO.
