Smog is caused by temperature inversion not by burning of Oil, wherever you have temperature inversion you will get smog and if no inversion than no smog.

That's not my understanding. The term 'smog' was originally intended to be a mixture of smoke and fog. It's use has expanded to include photochemical smogs, but there is the implication that it includes particles other than those of clean air. Those particles may come from the burning or coal or oil.

You may want to study temperature inversion. In North India the smog is observed in the winters only wherein South India where there are no winters, no smog is observed, though same pollution.

I know that temperature inversion doesn't create the pollutants that are a constituent of smog. It prevents them from being "blown away". I can remember the difference made as a kid in Glasgow in the early 1960s by the introduction of the "smokeless coal" regulations. Before the change, windless winter days were always smoggy, and the sun was a hazy blob in a grey sky. After the change, such cold, windless days had blue skies.
