Big Relief for LPG Users: There is a relief news for LPG users. Petroleum companies have not increased the price of cylinders without subsidy on the new year.
It is a matter of fact that these companies have made necessary increases in the prices of aircraft fuel and commercial gas cylinders. According to the notification of public sector retail fuel retailers, there has been no change in the price of LPG LPG on Friday. The price of 14.2 kg LPG cylinder without subsidy will still remain at Rs 694.
Price was increased by 100 rupees in December 2020
However, earlier, in December 2020, its price was increased by 100 rupees. The price was stable at Rs 594 per cylinder from July before the price increase in December. Subsidized LPG cylinders were being given to customers at the same rate. Most LPG customers have not received subsidy since May, as oil prices have fallen in the international market. On the other hand, the increase in the rate of filling LPG has eliminated the difference in subsidized LPG cylinder and its market rate.
