Commercial 19-kg LPG cylinder prices saw a significant hike across major Indian metropolitan areas as of October 1, adding to operational costs for restaurants, hotels, and other food-related businesses. This increase comes amidst ongoing volatility in global energy markets, influenced by fluctuations in crude oil prices and international energy benchmarks.
In contrast, the prices for 14.2-kg domestic LPG cylinders, which are widely used by households, have been kept unchanged. Similarly, rates for Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) and Piped Natural Gas (PNG) have also largely held steady across various cities, providing some stability for consumers using these alternative fuels.
Commercial LPG Cylinder Prices Rise
The price of a 19-kg commercial LPG cylinder varies by city, primarily due to local taxes, transportation costs, and other regional factors. Businesses relying heavily on LPG for their operations will face increased fuel expenses.
