On May 2, 2023, the Indian government announced that domestic liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) prices would remain unchanged despite pressures from global disruptions, particularly due to the ongoing conflict in Iran. However, the price of commercial LPG (19 kg cylinders) has increased by an average of ₹993, with rates in Delhi rising from ₹2,078.50 to ₹3,071.50 and in Mumbai from ₹2,031 to ₹3,024. The Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas confirmed that retail prices for petrol, diesel, and domestic LPG (14.2 kg cylinders) would remain stable, assuring citizens that supply is steady. The government emphasized the importance of avoiding panic buying, stating that measures are in place to ensure availability. Notably, around 49.8 lakh domestic LPG cylinders were delivered on April 30, 2023, against bookings of 41.6 lakh. Additionally, enforcement actions against black marketing have intensified, with over 2,300 raids conducted and penalties imposed on 342 LPG distributorships. The government is also promoting alternative fuels to mitigate demand pressure on LPG.
