Statement I: The prices of petrol products have increased substantially during the past few months in India. → Effect

Statement II: The prices of many goods in India are increasing now-a-days. → Effect

Increase of petrol prices could also be due to global oil prices or government policy. The price of the other goods could be increasing due to inflation, supply chain issues, or demand supply imbalances, thus not directly linked to petrol prices.

Thus, I, II are effects of independent causes.

Hence, "Option 3" is the correct answer.
