With all the advantages, some challenges are observed in the Indian market such as high pricing. Olive oil is a superior product owing to its health benefits, the pricing of the olive oil just similar to other edible oil. Still, few components are added because India totally imports it. The components are the charges included in its import such as shipping charges excise duty and other custom clearance related charges. The exchange rate also plays an integral part in the pricing of olive oil if there is low production and even depreciation in rupees the consumer prices are going to shoot up. Last year then finance minister Arun Jaitley had increased the duty on extra virgin olive oil from 12.5% to 30% and on refined 20% to 35%. Indian market totally depends on olive oil import, and with high prices and the product being premium, they are still restricted to the metro cities because of low demand and less awareness among other cities. _x000D_
