Amid the nationwide coronavirus lockdown, the price of non-subsidised LPG cylinders were cut today. This is the second consecutive fall in cylinder prices in last two months. In Delhi, a 14.2 kg non-subsidised LPG will now cost ₹744. This is a reduction of ₹61 per cylinder from the previous revision done on March 1. In Mumbai, a non-subsidised LPG cylinder will now be available at ₹714.50 as compared to ₹776.50 earlier.
After the today’s price revision, the LPG cylinder will cost ₹774.5 in Kolkata and ₹761.5 in Chennai as compared to ₹839.50 and ₹776.50 earlier.
Fuel retailers revise prices of LPG cylinders every month. The price of LPG cylinders in India is dependent primarily on two factors — the international benchmark rate of LPG and the exchange rate of US dollar and rupee.
