LPG cylinder developments in India

Overview

As of September 9, 2026, domestic LPG cylinder prices in India remain stable, with no price changes reported by major oil marketing companies including IOCL, BPCL, and HPCL. In New Delhi, the 14.2 kg domestic cylinder is priced at ₹942.00, while rates in other major cities vary due to local taxes and transportation costs, including ₹941.50 in Mumbai, ₹968.00 in Kolkata, and ₹1,031.50 in Patna.

Commercial 19 kg LPG cylinders continue to reflect the price increases seen earlier in the month, with rates such as ₹2,747.50 in Delhi and ₹2,884.00 in Kolkata.

Concurrently, a report by the Council on Energy, Environment and Water (CEEW) has highlighted challenges regarding the Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana (PMUY). Although the program has provided over 105 million free LPG connections, the study indicates that only 23 percent of rural households rely exclusively on LPG for cooking, as many families continue to use traditional fuels like wood alongside LPG.
