Domestic cooking gas prices have increased across India, with the cost of a 14.2-kg household LPG cylinder rising by Rs 60, while commercial cylinders have become costlier by about Rs 115. The revision, which took effect today, comes amid rising global energy prices linked to the ongoing military conflict in West Asia.
According to the Indian Oil Corporation (IOC), the price of a non-subsidised domestic LPG cylinder in Chennai, stands at Rs 928.50 per cylinder.
Industry officials said the increase reflects a surge in global energy costs triggered by tensions and disruptions in West Asia, a region critical to global oil and gas supply chains.
Despite the hike, officials maintain that cooking gas prices in India remain lower than in several neighbouring countries.
The increase marks the second revision in domestic LPG prices in less than a year. The last hike was in April 2025, when prices were raised by Rs 50.
