On the auspicious occasion of Navratri and the start of a new month, there is relief news for LPG consumers. The biggest change from April 1, 2025, is in the prices of LPG cylinders. Oil marketing companies revise the prices of LPG cylinders on the first date of every month, and this time, they have reduced the rates of commercial LPG cylinders significantly.
Commercial LPG Cylinders Become Cheaper
A major relief has been given to businesses like hotels, restaurants, and Dhabas as the price of a 19 kg commercial LPG cylinder has been reduced by up to ₹41. This reduction in price will help businesses that use large LPG cylinders for cooking on a daily basis. However, there is no change in the price of domestic gas cylinders (14 kg), which remain the same since August 1, 2024.
No Change in Domestic LPG Cylinder Prices
While commercial LPG cylinders have become cheaper, the price of a 14 kg domestic gas cylinder remains unchanged. This is good news for households, as they will not have to worry about an increase in kitchen expenses. The last revision in domestic LPG cylinder prices was done in August 2024, and since then, there has been no increase in rates.
How Will This Price Cut Affect Businesses?
The reduction in commercial LPG cylinder prices will provide major relief to businesses that use them for cooking. This includes:
- Dhabas
- Restaurants
- Hotels
- Catering businesses
With this price reduction, operating costs for these businesses will decrease, which might also result in lower food prices for customers in some places.
Impact on the Common Man
While the price of commercial LPG cylinders has been reduced, the common man will not see any change in household expenses as the price of domestic LPG cylinders remains the same. This means that people who cook at home will not have to pay more for their LPG gas, keeping their kitchen budget stable.
Conclusion
The reduction in commercial LPG cylinder prices is a positive step for businesses that depend on LPG for their daily operations. However, for the common people, there is no change in domestic cylinder prices, which ensures that household budgets remain unaffected. Stay updated with the latest LPG price changes every month as oil companies revise rates regularly.
