On October 3, 2026, the prices of domestic 14.2-kg LPG cylinders, Compressed Natural Gas (CNG), and Piped Natural Gas (PNG) remained unchanged across major Indian metropolitan areas. This stability offers some relief to households despite significant volatility in international energy markets.
However, commercial 19-kg LPG cylinder prices were hiked on October 1, impacting businesses such as restaurants, hotels, and other commercial establishments. This increase adds to operating costs for sectors heavily reliant on LPG for their daily operations.
Global Market Instability Influences Prices
The recent hike in commercial LPG prices comes amidst a turbulent global energy landscape. Crude oil prices have seen considerable fluctuations, with Brent crude jumping 4.4% to $102.31 per barrel and US West Texas Intermediate (WTI) rising 2.7% to $92.87 on October 1. These movements are influenced by various geopolitical factors, including reports of increased military deployments in the West Asia theatre.
Unlike domestic LPG cylinders, which see less frequent revisions, commercial LPG prices are adjusted more regularly to reflect changes in international crude oil and LPG benchmarks, as well as local taxes and transportation costs.
