Speaking at the CII Summit on Friday, road transport and highways secretary V Umashankar said since diesel consumption is almost two times that of petrol consumption, the impact of diesel blending will be far greater on our energy security than even petrol blending. The event saw the launch of a CII Knight Frank Report which said cumulative investments of nearly $360 billion in infrastructure development in the country over the last decade has slashed Indias logistics cost to 10-10.7% of GDP in FY 2026, from 13–14% of GDP a decade ago, translating into estimated annual savings of $123–133 billion for the economy.
