    Conforms to BIS : 1460:2005 specifications for High Speed Diesel Oil.
    Note:
    (1) For fuel processed from Assam crude, the density range is relaxed to 820-855.
    (2) Winter shall be the period from November to February in central and northern plains of India (both months
    inclusive) and rest of the months of the year shall be called as summer.
    (3) This limit is applicable prior to addition of ignition improvers, if used. In case a value exceeding the limit is
    obtained on finished fuels in the market, ASTM D4046/ISO 13759 shall be used to establish the presence of
    nitrate containing compound. In such case the present limit for carbon residue cannot be applied. However,
    the use of ignition improver does not exempt the manufacturer from meeting this requirement prior to the
    addition of additives.
    (4) For Fuel processed from Assam crude, Cetane number and Cetane index is relaxed by 3 units.

    * In addition to BIS specification BPCL(R) controls these parameters for better customer satisfaction.
