Commercial LPG Cylinders: Delhi Rs 195.50 up, Kolkata Rs 218
Delhi sees 19-kg commercial LPG cylinder jump to Rs 2,078.50, Kolkata to Rs 2,296.50 as supplies rise under Centre directives.
Delhi and Kolkata saw a fresh round of price increases for 19-kg commercial LPG cylinders, with Delhi prices rising by Rs 195.50 and Kolkata by Rs 218 per cylinder.
A 19-kg cylinder in Delhi now costs Rs 2,078.50, while in Kolkata the price hits Rs 2,296.50 after the hike.
The Delhi government had already raised the share of commercial LPG cylinders to 50% of average daily consumption, lifting supplies from about 1,800 to 4,500 cylinders per day, in line with directives from the Centre.
Domestic cooking gas rates remain unchanged for now, with domestic cylinder prices not affected in this round.
Industry observers note the move underscores ongoing volatility in energy costs and the ongoing effort to balance supply for businesses against household consumption, as cylinders used for commercial purposes carry different pricing and subsidy structures.
For businesses relying on commercial LPG, price movements like these can influence operating costs, while households continue to monitor domestic fuel pricing trends.
