据经济时报网站12月14日消息：在交通运输和商业活动复苏的推动下，印度11月燃料消费连续第三个月上升，不过同比下降表明经济复苏乏力。
石油和天然气部石油规划和分析小组(PPAC)的数据显示，11月成品油消费量为1783万吨，较上月增长0.4%。柴油消费是与经济增长挂钩的关键指标，约占印度总体成品油销售的40%。柴油消费环比微增0.6%，但同比下降7%，至704万吨。
近几周，印度的汽油消费一直是亚洲对汽油需求的主要推动因素之一，加上印度整体燃油销售的稳步增长，已促使该国炼油商提高产能。“亚太地区的汽柴油需求在今年第四季度加速复苏，主要受印度推动，因为该国现在进入了季节性汽柴油高需求期。”WoodMac研究助理Qiaoling Chen说。
汽油销量为266万吨，较10月增长0.4%，较上年同期增长5.1%。
燃料总需求较上年同期下降3.7%，10月出现自今年2月以来的首次同比增长，原因是制造业和服务业放缓，消费者呆在室内以避免感染。
液化石油气(LPG)的销售同比增长约4%，至235万吨，但较上月下降2.9%，石脑油销量同比增长7.2%，至134万吨。用于筑路的沥青销量同比增长约19%，而燃料油销量增长约8.7%。
