On May 7, 2026, the prices of LPG cylinders in India remained largely unchanged despite ongoing volatility in global oil markets. The price of a 14.2 kg domestic LPG cylinder is ₹913 in Delhi, while the 19 kg commercial LPG cylinder has surged to ₹3,071.50. This increase follows a series of hikes since February 28, attributed to the ongoing US-Israel-Iran conflict, which has disrupted oil supply chains. The price of commercial LPG has seen multiple increases, with the most recent hike of ₹993 occurring on May 1. The government has assured that there is no shortage of LPG and is taking steps to maintain supply levels. However, they have warned that prices may rise further, with potential increases of ₹40–50 for domestic cylinders and ₹4–5 for petrol and diesel. Authorities are encouraging consumers not to panic buy as they work to stabilize fuel availability across the country.
