India Raises Domestic LPG Prices by Rs 60 and Commercial Rates by Rs 115 Amid West Asia Conflict

On March 7, 2026, India raised domestic LPG cylinder prices by Rs 60 and commercial cylinder rates by about Rs 115 nationwide, marking the first domestic price hike since April 2025. The increases, attributed to rising global energy costs amid the West Asia conflict, affect household consumers and businesses reliant on LPG. Prices vary by city, with Delhi's domestic cylinder now at Rs 913. Beneficiaries of the Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana continue to receive subsidies. The government assures adequate fuel supply despite the hike, while opposition parties express concern over inflationary impacts.
