Mobil rolls back price hike over tax misread
Mobil Oil Corp says its 3 cent a gallon increase in New York was a mistake and will cut the hike to 1.3 cents for gasoline diesel and jet fuels sold to distributors and wholesalers. The change follows state officials clarifying that the gross receipts tax applies only to the final seller, not to Mobil directly. The move caps a public dispute over how the new tax would affect consumer prices and underscores the broader tax package aimed at bailing out New York City transit.
