LPG Price Cut from July 1: Commercial Cylinder Becomes Cheaper, Check New Rates in Your City

The beginning of July brings some financial relief for LPG users across the country. Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) have revised the prices of LPG cylinders, and this month, there's good news—commercial LPG cylinders have become cheaper, while domestic LPG prices remain unchanged. Effective from July 1, 2025, the rate cut is expected to benefit the hospitality and business sectors significantly. Here's a detailed look at the new prices across major cities.

Big Price Drop in Commercial LPG Cylinder Rates

As part of the routine monthly price revision, OMCs have announced a reduction of ₹58.50 in the price of the 19 kg commercial LPG cylinder. Starting July 1, the new rate in Delhi is ₹1,665, down from the previous ₹1,723.50. However, the price of the 14.2 kg domestic LPG cylinder remains unchanged this month.

This is the fourth consecutive month where LPG commercial cylinder rates have been reduced, providing consistent relief to businesses such as hotels, restaurants, and food vendors.

City-Wise Updated Prices for 19 Kg Commercial LPG Cylinders

Here's how much you'll now pay for a 19 kg commercial LPG cylinder in some major cities starting July 1, 2025:

• Delhi: ₹1,665 (earlier ₹1,723.50)

• Mumbai: ₹1,616 (earlier ₹1,674.50)

• Kolkata: ₹1,767.50 (earlier ₹1,826)

• Chennai: ₹1,822.50 (earlier ₹1,881)

• Noida: ₹1,747.50

This downward revision is expected to directly benefit small businesses, especially in the food and beverage sector, where LPG is one of the key operational inputs.

Domestic LPG Cylinder Rates Remain Unchanged

While commercial consumers enjoy reduced prices, domestic LPG users will not see any change this month. The 14.2 kg domestic cylinder continues to be sold at its previous rates in all cities. This could be a letdown for households hoping for a price cut, especially amidst rising inflation and other utility expenses.

Consistent Rate Cuts Over Recent Months

This price drop marks the fourth straight month of reductions in commercial LPG cylinder rates. In April, May, and June, similar cuts were implemented, showing a steady trend that aligns with fluctuations in global energy markets and crude oil prices.

These reductions are part of OMCs’ pricing strategy, which takes into account international benchmark prices and the strength of the Indian rupee against the U.S. dollar.

Relief for the Hospitality Industry

Restaurants, hotels, food joints, and street vendors are among the biggest beneficiaries of this reduction. A ₹58.50 drop per cylinder can significantly lower monthly operating costs for businesses that rely heavily on LPG for cooking and food preparation.

Industry experts believe this move could also help in stabilizing menu prices, potentially preventing food inflation in the short term.

With July 2025 kicking off on a positive note for commercial LPG users, businesses that rely on bulk cooking and heating will breathe a little easier. While domestic users await a similar reprieve, this consistent fall in commercial LPG prices is a welcome trend amid uncertain fuel markets.
