AGARTALA, March 7 (TIWN): Resentment erupted over increasing LPG Cylinder prices nationwide.
The prices of LPG cylinders in the country, both cooking and commercial, are determined by the state-run oil marketing companies. As per the current rules, the government subsidies a total of 12 cylinders of 14.2 kilograms each per household every year.
In the month of February 2021, LPG prices were hiked almost three times. The hike in LPG cooking gas rates comes at a time when the prices of petrol and diesel have touched all-time highs across the four metro cities. Amid a surge in global crude oil prices, oil marketing companies increased the fuel rates across all metros. Usually, the rates of non-subsidised LPG cylinders are reviewed on a monthly basis and any alterations are implemented on the first day of every month. Cooking gas rates vary in different parts across the country due to variation in local taxes.
