Why E20 petrol isn't cheaper than regular fuel despite higher ethanol content, government explains

The central government has once again addressed public concerns about ethanol-blended petrol. One of the prominent questions that is there in the mind of the people is that why petrol is not cheaper even after ethanol is added. Explaining the reason, The Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas said that E20 petrol isn't cheaper than pure petrol because ethanol procurement costs remain higher at current crude oil prices. Ethanol is made from sugarcane, maize, or grain. It is renewable, domestically produced and has cleaner burning than pure petrol. The government said that ethanol is deliberately purchased at high, fixed rates, up to 71.86 rupees per litre, to support Indian farmers.
