The price of a non-subsidised 14.2 kg LPG cylinder in Delhi currently costs Rs 899.50, according to the information available on the Indian Oil Corporation’s website.
In India, the OMCs sell 14.2 kg cylinders to domestic households at the prices prevalent in the open market, but the government provides subsidies for 12 such cylinders to every household each year with the help of a direct benefit transfer to their bank accounts.
Separately, prices of key auto fuels too hit fresh all-time highs on Monday as both petrol and diesel prices were increased by 35 paise per litre each in the national capital.
