LPG Crisis
The ongoing US-Iran-Israel war has had notable socio-political and economic consequences that are being felt the world over. One these negative externalities include supply shortages of commodities such as liquified petroleum gas, which has led to an LPG crisis in India.
LPG prices have increased by Rs 60 for a 14.2 kg non-subsidised household cylinder in Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata and Chennai with immediate effect, according to the Indian Oil website.
This is the highest price for a 14.2 kg non-subsidised LPG cylinder since Aug. 30, 2023. The previous revision in household LPG prices took place on April 8, 2025. Prices of commercial LPG have also increased. The price of a 19 kg commercial LPG cylinder in Delhi has risen by Rs 114.50 per cylinder. The latest revision marks the second increase within a week and the fourth since Jan. 1, 2026.
The increase came as global oil prices rose amid disruption to energy supplies linked to the conflict in the Middle East. Higher crude prices often influence fuel costs and supply decisions across energy markets.
