LPG prices in India remained unchanged on April 9, 2026, continuing the recent trend of stability. Domestic cooking gas rates stayed flat across major cities.
Commercial LPG cylinder prices also remained unchanged after the increase implemented on April 1, 2026. Oil marketing companies have not announced any mid-month revision so far.
The latest LPG rates for domestic (14.2 kg) and commercial (19 kg) cylinders across key cities are:
| 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 have remained unchanged since the ₹60 hike in early March 2026, despite higher international benchmarks. This has helped protect household budgets while increasing under-recoveries for oil marketing companies.
India imports around 90% of its LPG, largely from West Asia, but supply conditions remain stable. Authorities have confirmed uninterrupted deliveries with no reported shortages at distributorships.
Commercial LPG prices remain elevated after the April 1, 2026, revision, impacting restaurants, hotels and small businesses. The increase has been driven by a 44% rise in the Saudi Contract Price, along with supply disruptions near the Strait of Hormuz.
Higher freight and insurance costs have further added to pricing pressure. As a result, cities such as Hyderabad, Chennai and Kolkata continue to see prices above ₹2,200 per cylinder, affecting operating costs across sectors.
The government has introduced measures to ensure uninterrupted LPG supply amid geopolitical uncertainty. Efforts include maintaining shipment flows and strengthening monitoring across distribution networks.
The allocation of 5 kg free trade LPG cylinders has been doubled, and checks have been intensified to prevent hoarding and black marketing. Authorities have confirmed there is no shortage and have advised consumers against panic buying while focusing on supply stability.
