LPG prices in India on March 23, 2026, have been revised to update ongoing adjustments in response to global energy trends. These revisions are largely driven by fluctuations in international fuel prices and currency movements, and are expected to impact both household expenses and business operating costs.
The updated LPG rates for domestic (14.2 kg) and commercial (19 kg) cylinders in key metro cities are as follows:
| City | Domestic Price (₹) | % Change | Commercial Price (₹) | % Change |
| New Delhi | ₹913.00 | 7.03% | ₹1,884.50 | 8.27% |

| Bengaluru | ₹915.50 | 7.01% | ₹1,958.00 | 7.94% |
In India, LPG prices are set by government-owned oil marketing companies and are revised periodically. The key drivers behind these changes include global LPG benchmark prices and movements in the rupee against the US dollar.
Such revisions have a direct impact on household expenses and also raise input costs for businesses like restaurants, hotels, and catering services that depend heavily on LPG.
Domestic LPG cylinders, with a capacity of 14.2 kg, are mainly used for household cooking needs. In contrast, commercial cylinders weigh 19 kg and are intended for business use. These are usually priced higher as they are market-linked and do not benefit from subsidies.
