Commercial LPG cylinder price cut by Rs 33; no change in domestic cylinder rates

Oil marketing companies ( OMCs ) have announced a price cut of Rs 33.50 for 19 kg commercial LPG cylinders, effective August 1. In Delhi, the revised retail price will be Rs 1,631.50. However, there is no change in the cost of 14.2 kg domestic LPG cylinders. This marks yet another adjustment in a series of reductions over recent months. On July 1, the price of commercial LPG was slashed by Rs 58.50, bringing it down to Rs 1,665 per cylinder. Prior to that, OMCs had reduced prices by Rs 24 in June, Rs 41 in April, and Rs 7 in February. March had seen a marginal hike of Rs 6. The latest cut is expected to ease the financial burden on small businesses such as restaurants, hotels, and street food vendors that rely heavily on commercial LPG for their daily operations. While domestic usage accounts for nearly 90% of India's total LPG consumption, the remaining 10% serves commercial, industrial, and automotive sectors. Domestic LPG prices tend to remain stable despite frequent revisions in commercial rates. According to an earlier report of The Economic Times , the average price of India's crude oil basket fell to $64.5 per barrel in May 2025—its lowest in three years. This drop is expected to reduce LPG-related losses for OMCs by around 45% in the coming fiscal year. Since domestic gas pricing is linked to 10% of the crude oil basket, fluctuations in global oil rates significantly influence local fuel economics. India has seen rapid growth in household LPG adoption, with connections doubling over the last decade to reach nearly 33 crore households as of April 2025.
