Commercial LPG gas cylinder prices have been hiked by Rs 101 in Delhi, effective November 1, according to official sources. This is the second price increase in two months, as public sector OMCs had raised the price of 19 kg commercial LPG gas cylinders by Rs 209 on October 1.
The new price of a 19 kg commercial LPG gas cylinder in Delhi is now Rs 1833. Similar increases have been observed in other major cities, with Kolkata witnessing a hike to Rs 1839.50, Mumbai to Rs 1684.00, and Chennai to Rs 1898.00.
The rise in prices has left business owners, particularly shopkeepers and restaurateurs deeply concerned. Inflation has been an ongoing issue, and the additional increase in the price of commercial LPG cylinders only adds to their worries.
Shopkeepers are now urging the government to take measures to control inflation and ease the financial burden on small businesses.Â
