In a welcome move for the hospitality and small business sectors, the price of the 19-kg commercial LPG cylinder has been slashed by ₹58.50 across India, effective July 1, 2025. However, no changes have been made to the price of domestic 14.2-kg LPG cylinders, which remain steady for the fourth consecutive month.
🔍 Key Highlights:
