If you’re waiting for cheaper cooking gas, here’s the latest update — and it’s a mixed one. On 5 November 2025, India’s state-run oil marketing companies (OMCs) announced that domestic LPG cylinder prices remain unchanged, but commercial cylinder rates have been trimmed slightly.
That means households will continue paying the same as they have since April 2025, while restaurants, hotels, and caterers get a tiny but welcome breather in their monthly gas bills.
Domestic LPG Prices: Steady for Seven Months Straight
For regular consumers, the 14.2 kg domestic LPG cylinder price has now stayed unchanged for the seventh consecutive month. In Delhi, the rate remains ₹903, similar to other major metros.
This stability might not sound exciting, but for families juggling rising grocery and electricity bills, at least it means no sudden shock in cooking gas costs. Still, many households continue to hope for a price reduction — especially as festive expenses and general inflation continue to bite.
Here’s a quick look at the latest rates:
| City | Domestic LPG (14.2 kg) | Commercial LPG (19 kg) |
|---|---|---|
| Delhi | ₹903 (unchanged) | ₹1,590.5 (↓ ₹5) |
| Mumbai | ₹902 (unchanged) | ₹1,542 (↓ ₹5) |
| Kolkata | ₹929 (unchanged) | ₹1,694 (↓ ₹6.5) |
| Chennai | ₹918 (unchanged) | ₹1,750 (↓ ₹4.5) |
Commercial LPG Prices: Small Cut, Big Impact for Businesses
While domestic consumers saw no change, commercial LPG prices dropped slightly — between ₹4.5 and ₹6.5 depending on the city.
Now, that may sound minor, but for small eateries, bakeries, and catering units using multiple cylinders daily, the difference adds up. Every rupee saved on fuel helps offset the rising costs of vegetables, milk, and other essentials that directly impact menu prices.
Many in the food and hospitality industry see this as a timely move — a small cushion to protect profit margins during a time when input costs remain stubbornly high.
Why the Government Is Holding Prices Steady
So, why haven’t domestic LPG prices changed despite fluctuations in global crude rates? According to industry experts, the government’s strategy is to maintain price stability and avoid burdening households amid uncertain global energy markets.
This approach gives families predictability — but it also means there’s limited relief despite lower international gas prices in recent months. Essentially, OMCs are balancing consumer comfort with fiscal responsibility.
What This Means for You
If you’re a household customer, you’ll continue paying roughly the same as before — no hike, but no discount either. For businesses, especially in the hospitality sector, this small reduction in commercial LPG can help manage operating costs and keep menu prices steady.
In short:
- Households → Stable prices since April 2025.
- Businesses → Small but meaningful savings in November.
It’s not a game-changing update, but in a time of rising expenses, even small steps matter.
