LPG cylinder price on April 17: Check domestic and commercial gas rates in Delhi, Bengaluru, Mumbai, Kolkata today
The government raised the prices of both domestic and commercial LPG cylinders after the outbreak of conflict in West Asia in February. The increase was driven by supply shortages caused by disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz, a key route for the global energy shipments.
The US blockade on vessels entering or leaving Iranian ports has added to the uncertainty around shipping through the Strait, which traffic has sharply declined since the start of the Iran conflict.
