Subsidised cooking gas (LPG) price was today hiked by Rs. 1.93
per cylinder, the second increase in rates in one month as the
government looked at monthly increases to cut down subsidies.
A subsidised 14.2-kg cylinder will now cost Rs. 423.09 in Delhi as against Rs. 421.16 previously, according to state-owned oil firms.
This is the second straight monthly increase in subsidised cooking gas. LPG rates were last hiked by Rs. 1.98 per 14.2—kg cylinder on July 1,2016
Simultaneously, the oil firms cut prices of non—subsidised LPG, which consumers buy after exhausting their quota of 12, by Rs. 50.5 per 14.2—kg cylinder.
