The price of commercial LPG cylinders in India was cut by ₹33.50 on August 1, 2025, primarily due to a downward trend in international crude oil prices.

Key reasons LPG cylinders price reduced :

Falling Global Crude Oil Prices: Commercial LPG prices are directly linked to international crude oil benchmarks. Reports indicate that the average price of India’s crude oil import basket has fallen to its lowest level in three years. This continued softening in the international market has allowed oil marketing companies (OMCs) to reduce prices for commercial consumers.

Government’s Pricing Mechanism: OMCs in India revise the prices of LPG cylinders on the first day of every month. This revision is based on factors like international crude oil rates and the foreign exchange rate. The consistent decline in crude oil prices has enabled OMCs to pass on the benefit to businesses.

Relief for Businesses: This latest cut, which is part of a series of reductions over the past several months, is intended to provide relief to businesses in the hospitality and food service sectors, such as hotels, restaurants, and street food vendors, which heavily depend on commercial LPG for their operations.

It’s important to note that this price cut applies only to 19 kg commercial LPG cylinders. The price of 14.2 kg domestic LPG cylinders, which are used by households, remains unchanged.
