The Nepal LPG Industry Association has asked gas companies to resume selling LPG cylinders at the regular price of Rs 2,060 per cylinder from Friday, following the Nepal Oil Corporation’s prescribed rate.

Gas distributors had been charging an additional Rs 105.38 per cylinder as transportation costs after the Krishna Bhir section of the Prithvi Highway was blocked by the Bhotekoshi flood. The disruption forced industries to use alternative routes to transport LPG into Kathmandu Valley.

Since Bhadau 14, companies supplying the Kathmandu Valley had been refilling cylinders at LPG plants in Makwanpur, Parsa, Bara, Chitwan, Nawalparasi and Dhanusha before transporting them through alternative routes. With the association now calling for a return to the standard rate, consumers are expected to pay Rs 2,060 per cylinder from Friday.
