Oil marketing companies have reduced the price of a 19 kg commercial LPG gas cylinder by ₹51.50.
The price cut brings relief to commercial consumers across the country after the latest monthly revision by oil marketing companies. The new prices will come into effect from September 1.
In Delhi, the retail sale price of a 19 kg commercial LPG cylinder will be ₹1580 from September 1. There is no change in the prices of 14.2 KG domestic cylinders.
OMCs had slashed prices of commercial LPG cylinders by ₹33.50 on August 1 also.
Prior to that, OMCs had reduced prices by ₹58.50 on July 1.
Earlier, in June, oil firms had announced a ₹24 cut for commercial cylinders, setting the rate at ₹1,723.50. In April, the price stood at ₹1,762. February saw a small ₹7 reduction, but March reversed this slightly with a ₹6 increase.
About 90 per cent of India’s total LPG is used for household cooking. The remaining 10 per cent goes to commercial, industrial and automotive sectors. Domestic cylinder prices often stay stable even when commercial rates move up or down.
Over the last decade, domestic LPG connections have doubled to around 33 crore by April 2025 — a sharp rise showing how deeply cooking gas is tied to daily life in India.
