There has been an increase in the prices of commercial LPG cylinders since November 1, due to which inflation has affected the consumers. According to Indian Oil, the new prices of 19 kg commercial LPG cylinder in different cities are as follows:
City Commercial LPG Cylinder (19 kg) Domestic LPG Cylinder (14.2 kg) Delhi ₹1802.00 ₹803.00 Kolkata ₹1911.50 ₹829.00 Mumbai ₹1754.50 ₹802.50 Chennai ₹1964.50 ₹818.50 Patna ₹2072.00 ₹901.00 Ahmedabad ₹1821.00 ₹810.00
Important points:
Commercial LPG cylinders have increased by about ₹62, while there is no change in the prices of domestic LPG cylinders. In Patna, a 14.2 kg domestic LPG cylinder is available for ₹901, while a 19 kg commercial cylinder is available for ₹2072.
The shock of this post-Diwali price hike could hit consumers hard, especially in areas where commercial LPG usage is high.
The effect of this increase can be seen by the common people in the form of increased food bills in restaurants etc. However, customers purchasing domestic gas will not see any price increase this month.
