What Caused LPG Price Rise In India?
The latest revision comes as state-run fuel retailers continue to face pressure from higher international energy costs. According to industry estimates, oil marketing companies were losing around ₹703 on every domestic LPG cylinder sold before the latest increase.
Fuel retailers have already raised petrol and diesel prices in recent weeks, while compressed natural gas rates have also moved higher.
Addressing the issue recently, Petroleum Ministry Joint Secretary Sujata Sharma said, "As far as the under recovery on LPG domestic cooking cylinder is concerned, it is still in the range of almost 700 rupees."
She added that lower commercial consumption, changes in booking patterns and delivery authentication measures have contributed to a moderation in LPG demand in recent months.
