Nevertheless, the tank discount According to the Ifo Institute, contrary to criticism, it was largely passed on to drivers. “With diesel, the gas stations passed it on 100 percent, i.e. 17 cents tax reduction per liter. With Super it was 29 to 30 cents of 35 cents tax reduction, i.e. 85 percent,” said Ifo.
The Ministry of Economy on the other hand, had accused the oil companies of only passing on part of the reduced tax. Economics Minister Robert Habeck spoke of a moral scandal and announced that antitrust law would be tightened. (Editor €uro on Sunday)
