LPG Prices Today June 9: How much does a domestic and commercial cylinder cost in Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata | Today’s news
India increased domestic LPG cylinder prices by ₹29 per unit with effect from June 7, bringing the cost of a 14.2 kg cooking gas cylinder to ₹942 in Delhi and ₹968 in Kolkata, the second upward revision in less than three months, as oil marketing companies continue to absorb steep losses on every cylinder sold.
The last revision follows a ₹60 per cylinder increase on March 7, meaning domestic cooking gas rose by ₹a total of 89 since the start of this month. Despite the rebound, the government says consumers across categories remain heavily subsidized relative to the actual cost of supply.

The government says consumers are still getting LPG ₹700 to ₹1000 indirect subsidy per cylinder
At an inter-ministerial press briefing on Monday, Additional Secretary, Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas Praveen Mal Khanooja argued that ₹29 revision should be seen in the context of the substantial indirect subsidy that consumers continue to receive.
“Whether I am an Ujjwala customer or another customer, I get a cylinder that should stand ₹1,600, at ₹942 even though I am not a customer of Ujjwala. In this case, it is also an indirect subsidy for the customer. Additionally, Ujjwala customers will get ₹300 more. So overall, if you can see, they are still ₹1,000. Non-Ujjwala also get ₹700 per cylinder,” Khanooja said.
The effective cost of a 14.2 kg cylinder, relative to the Saudi contract price, currently exceeds ₹1,600, making the gap between the market rate and the consumer price significant by all standards.
Oil marketing companies are facing a lackluster recovery ₹700 per LPG bottle even after the June price increase
The ₹29 revision has done little to close the financial gap faced by Indian companies in the oil market. Khanooja confirmed that OMC’s underutilization of domestic LPG is currently approx ₹700 per 14.2 kg bottle, a level comparable to that which prompted the central government to compensate OMCs ₹52,000 crore in FY23 and FY24.
The Ministry framed ₹29 as a minimum burden for households. Khanooja calculated this as a “very small hike” of roughly ₹1 per day for a family that consumes 12 bottles per year, or 20 paisa per day per household member.
Beneficiaries of the Ujjwala scheme will receive ₹300 additional subsidy per cylinder for the first four refills per year
Under the Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana, eligible consumers receive a direct subsidy of Rs ₹300 per bottle for the first four refills each year, reflecting the government’s assessment that Ujjwala households consume an average of four to five bottles per year. This benefit is superimposed on the indirect subsidy already embedded in the below-market consumer price, bringing the total effective relief to Ujjwala beneficiaries to around ₹1000 per cylinder.
Domestic LPG production reaches record levels even as supply pressures persist in West Asia
On the supply side, Khanooja said supplies of crude oil, LPG and natural gas remained stable despite ongoing tensions in West Asia. Domestic LPG production increased significantly and reached 53 TMT per day on World LPG Day, a figure roughly 60 percent higher than before the crisis. Distributor backlog has dropped below four days, shipper online reservations are at 99 percent, and delivery verification has reached 96 percent.
In the four days leading up to the briefing, shipper bookings averaged 42 million per day, while shipments reached 44 million per day. LPG sales have also increased to around 6 TMT per month, which is 70 to 75 percent of pre-crisis consumption levels.
Underutilization of gasoline and diesel is adding to OMC’s financial strain as enforcement efforts intensify
LPG losses are accompanied by a wider underutilization of fuels. Khanooja revealed that oil marketing companies are currently absorbing the shortfalls ₹30 per liter for diesel and ₹6 per liter of petrol, which means a combined industrial loss of Rs ₹600 to ₹700 million per day.
Along with pressure on supply, enforcement activity has also increased. Over four days, the authorities conducted 1,800 inspections of petrol and diesel outlets and 890 inspections of LPG distributors, with FIRs and financial penalties imposed if violations were found.
PNG connections cross 1.69 million mark as flex-fuel E85 launches at 50 petrol stations across the country
The briefing also covered broader energy developments. Natural gas pipeline connections exceeded 1.69 billion, with 9.16 thousand new connections added since March 2026. Flex-fuel E85, which was launched on June 5 for vehicles with compatible engines, is currently available at 50 gas stations nationwide and is expected to be distributed to 5,000 gas stations by December 2027. ₹20 per liter below E20, making it a cheaper alternative for authorized vehicle owners.
The refinery is running at optimum capacity and has delivered 2,760 MT of C3/C4 molecules and 1,660 MT of butyl electrolyte for use in chemical and pharmaceutical production as of June 1.
