Commercial Cylinders Now Rs 100 More Expensive From Today
New Delhi, 1st December 2021: The hopes of getting cheaper LPG cylinders have suffered a setback today. Gas cylinders have become costlier by Rs 100 from today. People had expected that in view of the assembly elections to be held in 5 states including Uttar Pradesh, Punjab next year, the Modi government would make gas cheaper like petrol and diesel.
It is a matter of relief that this increase has taken place only in commercial cylinders by the Petroleum companies. There was no change in the price of domestic LPG cylinders. Last month it became costlier by Rs 266 and now it has been increased by Rs 100.

Talking about the LPG cylinders, the price in Delhi in January this year was Rs 694, which was increased to Rs 719 per cylinder in February. On February 15, the price was increased to Rs 769. After this, on February 25, the price of the LPG cylinder was reduced to Rs 794.
