LPG Cylinder Price Today: LPG consumers have received the latest price update for October 3, 2026. There has been no fresh change in LPG cylinder prices compared with October 2, but commercial users are already paying more following the price revision introduced at the beginning of the month.

Oil marketing companies increased the price of the 19-kg commercial LPG cylinder from October 1. However, the price of the standard 14.2-kg domestic LPG cylinder, commonly used for household cooking, was left unchanged.

This means households have been spared an additional increase for now, while hotels, restaurants, dhabas and other businesses using commercial cylinders are facing higher costs.

Commercial LPG Cylinder Gets Costlier in Delhi

Delhi saw a noticeable increase in the price of a 19-kg commercial LPG cylinder at the beginning of October.

The commercial cylinder now costs ₹2,810 in Delhi, compared with ₹2,747.50 in September. This represents an increase of ₹62.50 per cylinder.

For households, however, there has been no corresponding increase.

The price of a standard 14.2-kg domestic LPG cylinder in Delhi remains ₹942.

The difference is important because commercial and domestic LPG prices are revised separately. An increase in commercial LPG does not necessarily mean that household cooking gas has also become more expensive.

LPG Prices in Mumbai, Kolkata and Chennai

Commercial LPG prices have also increased across several other major cities.

In Mumbai, a 19-kg commercial cylinder is priced at ₹2,764.50, while the rate in Kolkata stands at ₹2,954.

Businesses in Chennai are paying ₹2,983 for a 19-kg cylinder, while the price in Bengaluru is ₹2,898.

The commercial cylinder costs ₹2,932.50 in Lucknow and ₹3,100.50 in Patna.

Domestic cylinder prices, meanwhile, remain lower and unchanged under the latest revision. A 14.2-kg household cylinder costs ₹941.50 in Mumbai, ₹968 in Kolkata and ₹957.50 in Chennai.

Latest Domestic and Commercial LPG Prices

Here are the LPG rates mentioned for major cities:

These figures also show that LPG prices can differ considerably from one city to another.

Why Do LPG Prices Differ Across Cities?

Consumers sometimes expect an LPG cylinder to cost the same everywhere, but retail prices can vary depending on location.

Transportation and distribution costs, geographical conditions and other pricing components can contribute to differences between cities.

For example, the domestic cylinder price in Delhi is ₹942, while consumers in Ranchi are paying ₹1,010.50 according to the rates cited above.

Commercial cylinder rates also show substantial differences. Delhi's 19-kg cylinder costs ₹2,810, compared with ₹3,058.50 in Hyderabad.

Consumers should therefore check the rate applicable to their own city instead of relying on the price quoted for another location.

LPG Prices Are Usually Reviewed at the Start of the Month

Oil marketing companies generally review LPG cylinder prices around the beginning of each month.

The October review resulted in higher commercial LPG prices, while domestic cylinder prices were kept unchanged.

As of October 3, there has been no additional revision compared with October 2.

This provides some relief to households because the cost of the standard 14.2-kg cooking gas cylinder has not increased in the latest round of price changes.

Commercial LPG Hike Could Affect Businesses

The increase in 19-kg LPG cylinder prices is particularly relevant for the hospitality and food-service industries.

Restaurants, hotels, cafés, dhabas, caterers and other commercial establishments can consume several LPG cylinders every month. Therefore, even an increase of ₹50-₹60 per cylinder can add to monthly operating expenses for businesses with high consumption.

In Delhi, for example, the ₹62.50 increase means an establishment using 20 commercial cylinders in a month would face an additional cylinder cost of about ₹1,250, assuming the same price difference applies to all those refills.

Businesses may consequently keep a closer watch on future LPG revisions if commercial prices remain elevated.

Domestic Consumers Get Relief for Now

The most important takeaway for household consumers is that 14.2-kg domestic LPG prices have not been increased in the latest October revision.

Delhi consumers continue to pay ₹942, while Mumbai's rate remains ₹941.50. Kolkata and Chennai households are paying ₹968 and ₹957.50 respectively.

However, domestic LPG rates are not identical across India, making it important for consumers to check the price applicable to their location before ordering a refill.

Check the Latest Rate Before Booking a Cylinder

LPG prices can be revised periodically, and commercial and domestic cylinders do not always move in the same direction.

Consumers should therefore check the latest applicable rate through their LPG distributor or the official channels of their oil marketing company before booking a refill.

For October 3, 2026, the key update is clear: LPG prices are unchanged from October 2. Commercial cylinders became costlier at the beginning of October, while domestic 14.2-kg cylinder prices continue at their existing levels.

For households, that means no fresh LPG price shock today. Commercial users, however, are already dealing with the higher rates introduced at the start of the month.

Disclaimer: LPG prices can vary by city, cylinder category and applicable pricing components and may be revised periodically. Consumers should verify the latest local price through their authorised LPG distributor or oil marketing company's official channels before booking a refill.
