LPG consumers received some relief on September 7, 2026, as the prices of 14.2-kg domestic cooking gas cylinders remained unchanged across major Indian cities. While households have been spared another increase in their monthly cooking gas expenses, commercial users are paying more following the latest revision in 19-kg cylinder prices.

In Delhi, a standard 14.2-kg domestic LPG cylinder continues to cost ₹942. The price remains ₹941.50 in Mumbai, ₹968 in Kolkata and ₹957.50 in Chennai. Since LPG is an essential part of the monthly household budget for millions of families, stable domestic cylinder prices mean consumers do not have to bear an additional financial burden for the time being.

However, the situation is different for businesses. Commercial LPG cylinder prices were increased at the beginning of September, raising fuel expenses for restaurants, hotels, roadside eateries and other establishments that depend heavily on cooking gas.

Domestic LPG Prices Remain Unchanged

Oil marketing companies periodically review LPG prices, and consumers closely watch the rates announced around the beginning of each month. Domestic and commercial LPG cylinders do not necessarily see identical revisions.

For September, households have avoided an increase in the price of the commonly used 14.2-kg cylinder.

Here are the latest domestic LPG cylinder prices in some major cities:

The rates show that LPG prices vary from one city to another. While Delhi residents are paying ₹942 for a domestic cylinder, the price in Ranchi stands considerably higher at ₹999.50. Mumbai has one of the lower rates among the cities listed, at ₹941.50 per cylinder.

Commercial LPG Cylinders Become Costlier

Although there has been no fresh increase for household cylinders, commercial LPG users have already felt the impact of September's price revision.

The price of a 19-kg commercial cylinder in Delhi has climbed to ₹2,747.50. It was priced at ₹2,738 in the previous month, representing an increase of ₹9.50 per cylinder.

The increase may appear relatively small for a single cylinder, but businesses that consume several cylinders every month could see a noticeable rise in their overall operating expenses.

Commercial LPG Price on September 7

The latest prices for 19-kg commercial LPG cylinders across selected cities are:

Among these cities, Ranchi has the highest listed commercial cylinder rate at ₹2,933, followed by Chennai at ₹2,916.50. Mumbai's commercial LPG cylinder is comparatively cheaper at ₹2,701.

Restaurants and Hotels Could Face Higher Costs

Commercial LPG is widely used by restaurants, hotels, cafés, catering businesses, dhabas and other food-related establishments. Consequently, even a modest increase in cylinder prices can raise operating costs, particularly for businesses that consume LPG in large quantities.

The final impact will depend on the number of cylinders a business uses each month. Establishments with high daily gas consumption are likely to feel the price increase more than smaller businesses.

For households, however, the picture remains more favourable. The unchanged price of the 14.2-kg domestic cylinder means families have not faced an additional LPG price hike in September so far.

Why Are LPG Prices Reviewed Every Month?

LPG cylinder rates are generally reviewed around the beginning of each month. Domestic and commercial cylinders can undergo separate price revisions, which is why one category may become more expensive while the other remains unchanged.

Consumers are therefore advised to check the applicable LPG rate in their city before booking a refill, as the final price can differ depending on location and cylinder category.

What Consumers Should Know on September 7

The key takeaway for September 7, 2026, is that domestic LPG consumers continue to see stable prices. A 14.2-kg cylinder costs ₹942 in Delhi, ₹941.50 in Mumbai, ₹968 in Kolkata and ₹957.50 in Chennai.

Commercial customers, on the other hand, are paying revised rates this month. With the 19-kg cylinder now priced at ₹2,747.50 in Delhi and even higher in several other cities, businesses that rely heavily on LPG may have to account for slightly higher fuel expenses.

For households, the absence of a domestic LPG price increase provides some breathing room in the monthly budget, while businesses will continue to keep a close watch on future revisions.
