Cooking gets costlier, non-subsidised LPG gas prices increase

New Delhi: The price of non-subsidised cooking gas (LPG) has been sharply raised by Rs 86 per cylinder, by the state-run oil marketers.

The Petroleum Ministry has issued a statement, on Thursday, saying, “With effect from March 1, 2017, non-subsidised price of LPG cylinder has increased by Rs 86. This is in line with the rise in global LPG product prices.”

With this increase, a non-subsidised 14.2 kg LPG cylinder will now cost Rs. 737.50 in Delhi.

Along with the non-subsidised LPGs the oil companies have also raised price of subsidised cooking gas by a marginal 13 paisa to Rs. 434.93 per 14.2 kg cylinder.

The rates of aviation turbine fuel (ATF), or jet fuel, were also raised by Rs. 214 per kilolitre to Rs. 54,293.38 per kl. The ministry, however, stated that the rates would vary at airports as per local taxes.
