As of May 13, 2026, Indian consumers continue to face evolving India fuel prices for essential energy sources like Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG), Compressed Natural Gas (CNG), and Piped Natural Gas (PNG). Geopolitical tensions, particularly in West Asia, are closely monitored as India relies heavily on imports from the region for over 40 percent of its crude oil and 90 percent of its LPG.
Despite these global concerns, no supply shortages have been reported at distributorships across the country. The Indian government is actively supporting households through schemes such as the Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana (PMUY), which provides subsidies to eligible low-income families, helping to mitigate the rising costs of cooking fuel. More than 10 crore families have benefited from this initiative.
