The term ‘Administered Price Mechanism’ is associated with which sector?
Fossil Fuels
Fertilizers
Cooking Gas
Life saving Drugs
- The ‘Administered Price Mechanism’ (APM) is a system where the government centrally determines and regulates prices for certain critical goods.
- Option 1: Fossil Fuels – Prices of products like petrol and diesel in India were historically under APM, but have shifted towards market-linked prices in recent years.
- Option 2: Fertilizers – Fertilizer prices, particularly urea, are controlled under APM to make them affordable for farmers.
- Option 3: Cooking Gas – LPG prices have partially moved away from APM but subsidies are still administered by the government.
- Option 4: Life saving Drugs – Some essential medicines are price-controlled, but not fully under a traditional APM.
- Thus, the most correct answer is Option 2: Fertilizers, as this sector is strongly linked with administered price mechanisms.
