Oil marketing companies reduce the price of 19-kg commercial LPG cylinders by about ₹183.50 effective 1 July 2026, according to multiple reports. The cut is described as the first reduction in commercial cylinder rates this year after earlier price increases linked to global supply pressures. For example, the Delhi commercial 19-kg cylinder is priced at ₹2,930, down from ₹3,113.50 in June. City-wise pricing mentioned across outlets also shows decreases in places including Kolkata, Chandigarh, Lucknow, Patna, Mumbai and Chennai, with specific amounts varying by city.
Household LPG rates for the 14.2-kg cylinder are reported to remain unchanged for July. Several reports include ongoing domestic prices for cities such as Delhi (₹942), Mumbai (₹941.50), Kolkata (₹968) and Chennai (₹957.50).
One explanation offered by outlets for the timing of the reduction is a fall in international crude oil prices after easing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, alongside reduced concerns about shipping and supply disruptions. Some reports also mention an additional cut for 5 kg Free Trade LPG (FTL) in certain markets.
