|August 09, 2025
PETROLEUM minister Hardeep Singh Puri on Friday said not a single case of engine failure or breakdown has been reported since E20 became the base fuel in India over the past 10 months.
Citing Brazil's long-standing experience with higher ethanol blends, Puri said the country has been running on E27 for years without any operational issues.
Speaking at a Fireside Chat Session on the sidelines of Pioneer Biofuels 360 Summit, the minister alleged some vested interest groups are actively trying to spread misinformation and derail India's ethanol revolution.
