Being a leader is hard. Striving to become one is harder still. In a world where finding true examples of leadership is challenging to say the least, the process of actually becoming one is fraught with obstacles. The least of these is of course is the traditional procedure of selection. The civil services (in India at least) have a reputation of being downright brutal in their rejection of candidates. The IAS is one of the toughest exams on the planet. Given the rigorous syllabus and sheer amount of information that must be sifted through, any help that would make the ordeal just a little bit easier would be welcome, if not essential. Working hard is never enough. Working smart is.
This is where IAS Mentors come into the picture. In an environment, flooded with cheap, low quality magazines containing loads of information without any thought to the relevance, IAS Mentors has taken an initiative to make life simple for students. The idea behind our work is to present ONLY the relevant, in a form that is simple to understand. Outsourcing is a concept that is getting popular accross the globe. Companies cut cost by outsourcing their jobs to others. A student’s biggest cost is TIME. With us, you save time. Because we only present the useful and important.
We pride ourselves in the area of general studies where our experts conduct extensive research on current events around the world, along with backgrounds and insights to prepare cutting-edge material for the candidates. The idea is to negate all the needless research and analysis. To become the best, you have to prepare with the best. We consider ourselves mentors to a whole generation of leaders. It is a mantle which we take upon ourselves with great responsibility and humility.
Because knowledge is power.
And we know.

Hello Mansi,
Here is the answer to your questions :
Q.1 Oil Prices : Following are the factors affecting oil prices:
1.Demand and supply forces
2.Dollar Fluctuation
3.Input cost
4.Derivative trading of oil
5.Market Speculation
6.Government policies (subsidies ,tax etc.)
In India, the cost to end consumers are set by government.
Q.2 Effect of changing oil prices :
Major consumption of oil is in Transportation,Industries and Electricity generation.Rise in oil prices lead to increase in the the price of several commodities which leads to inflation which the government controls via adjusting the key rates.News of inflation hampers the market sentiments and exerts a downward pressure on the stock market index.
