Domestic LPG (cooking gas) prices have been hiked by ₹29 per 14.2-kg cylinder across India, effective June 7, 2026.0b4597
This is the second increase in the last three months (after a ₹60 hike in March), as state-owned oil companies (like Indian Oil, Bharat Petroleum, and Hindustan Petroleum) adjust to elevated global energy prices amid geopolitical tensions in West Asia.
In Delhi: Price rises from ₹913 to ₹942 per 14.2-kg domestic cylinder.
Commercial LPG: Also hiked (e.g., by around ₹42 for a 19-kg cylinder in Delhi, now around ₹3,113.50).32ff7b
Prices vary slightly by city due to local taxes and transport costs. Examples of new approximate domestic rates:
Mumbai: ~₹941.50
Kolkata: ~₹968
Other cities like Hyderabad, Chennai, etc., follow similar adjustments.
Subsidized users (e.g., under Ujjwala scheme) continue to get relief, paying significantly less (around ₹642 effective in some cases), but the hike still affects millions of households.
