LPG cylinder prices in India remained unchanged on April 7, 2026, across both domestic and commercial segments. Oil marketing companies did not announce any revision following the latest monthly update cycle.
This stability comes after earlier adjustments made at the beginning of April. While domestic consumers continue to benefit from steady pricing, commercial users are still facing elevated costs due to global supply pressures.
| City | Domestic LPG (14.2 kg) | Commercial LPG (19 kg) |
| New Delhi | ₹913.00 | ₹2,078.50 |
| Mumbai | ₹912.50 | ₹2,031.00 |
| Kolkata | ₹939.00 | ₹2,208.50 |
| Chennai | ₹928.50 | ₹2,246.50 |
| Bangalore | ₹915.50 | ₹2,161.00 |
| Hyderabad | ₹965.00 | ₹2,320.50 |
Domestic LPG prices remain below ₹1,000 in most cities, indicating relative affordability for households, while commercial LPG prices exceed ₹2,000 in major urban centres. Price variations across cities are driven by logistics, freight and local tax structures.
Domestic rates have remained unchanged since the ₹60 hike in early March 2026 despite rising global benchmarks. This suggests oil marketing companies are absorbing under-recoveries to protect consumers while maintaining supply continuity.
Commercial LPG prices remain elevated following the increase implemented on April 1, 2026. The rise has been driven by a 44% increase in the Saudi Contract Price and supply disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz.
Increased freight and insurance costs linked to geopolitical tensions have also contributed to higher prices. As a result, commercial LPG rates in several cities remain above ₹2,200, impacting operational costs for businesses.
LPG prices differ across cities due to transportation costs, regional logistics, and local levies. Areas located farther from supply depots typically incur higher distribution expenses, increasing retail prices.
Commercial LPG attracts GST and other duties, unlike domestic LPG which is subsidised. This creates a consistent price gap between household and business-use cylinders across regions.
