LPG cylinder rates stay steady amid Middle East unrest, latest city prices
Despite the renewed flare‑up between the United States and Iran, Indian consumers have not seen any change in LPG cylinder pricing. The Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas released the July 10 rates, confirming that both domestic (14.2 kg) and commercial (19 kg) cylinders are unchanged from the previous cycle.
Key price points include: - Delhi: Rs 942 (domestic), Rs 2,930 (commercial) - Kolkata: Rs 968, Rs 3,081.50 - Chennai: Rs 957.50, Rs 3,106 - Jaipur: Rs 945.50, Rs 2,957.50 Additional cities such as Noida (Rs 939.50 / Rs 2,930), Lucknow (Rs 979.50 / Rs 3,052.50), Mumbai (Rs 941.50 / Rs 2,885.50), Bengaluru (Rs 944.50 / Rs 3,021), Hyderabad (Rs 994 / Rs 3,191) and others also report steady figures.
The stability is credited to India’s diversified import strategy and a robust domestic distribution network. While experts keep an eye on freight‑cost volatility, the current data suggest that consumers will not face a shortage or price surge in the immediate term.
