LPG Cylinder Price Today: Commercial Gas Gets Costlier in October, Check Latest Rates in Major Cities
LPG Cylinder Price Today, October 3, 2026: Consumers checking the latest cooking gas rates in October will see a different price trend for domestic and commercial LPG cylinders. Oil marketing companies have increased the price of the 19-kg commercial LPG cylinder, while rates for the commonly used 14.2-kg domestic cylinder have been kept unchanged.
The latest revision means households have avoided an immediate increase in their regular cooking gas expense. However, businesses that rely heavily on commercial LPG—including restaurants, hotels, cafés, catering businesses and roadside eateries—may face higher operating costs following the latest price adjustment.
Here is a detailed look at LPG cylinder prices applicable in major cities, including Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Bengaluru, Hyderabad and Chennai.
Commercial LPG Cylinder Becomes Costlier in October
The major change at the beginning of October has come in the commercial LPG category.
In Delhi, a 19-kg commercial LPG cylinder is now priced at ₹2,810. Its reported price in September was ₹2,747.50, which means the cylinder has become ₹62.50 more expensive.
Commercial LPG cylinders are extensively used by food-service businesses and other establishments requiring gas in larger quantities. As a result, even a relatively small increase in the price per cylinder can raise monthly operating expenses for businesses consuming multiple cylinders.
The actual financial impact will depend on each establishment's LPG consumption and other operating costs.
No Fresh Increase in 14.2-Kg Domestic LPG Price
Household LPG consumers have received some relief from the October revision because the price of the standard 14.2-kg domestic cylinder has not been increased in the rates provided.
In Delhi, a domestic LPG cylinder continues to cost ₹942. Mumbai consumers are paying ₹941.50, while the rate stands at ₹968 in Kolkata and ₹957.50 in Chennai.
Domestic LPG rates also vary between cities due to factors such as local costs and distribution expenses.
Among the cities included in the provided list, Ranchi has the highest domestic cylinder price at ₹1,010.50. Hyderabad follows at ₹994, while Bengaluru's domestic LPG cylinder costs ₹944.50.

Commercial LPG Crosses ₹3,000 in Some Cities
The latest city-wise data shows a noticeable gap in commercial LPG prices across the country.
In Mumbai, a 19-kg commercial cylinder costs ₹2,763.50, while businesses in Kolkata are paying ₹2,946.50. The price is ₹2,978.50 in Chennai and ₹2,893.50 in Bengaluru.
Hyderabad is among the more expensive cities in the list, with a 19-kg commercial cylinder priced at ₹3,058.50. In Coimbatore, the corresponding price stands at ₹3,002.50.
Meanwhile, the reported commercial LPG rates are ₹2,947.50 in Cuttack and ₹2,988 in Ranchi.
These differences make it important for commercial consumers to check the applicable rate in their own city instead of relying on the price announced for another location.
Why Are LPG Prices Reviewed Regularly?
Oil marketing companies periodically review LPG prices after taking various market factors into account. International energy prices, supply costs, currency movements and other components can influence the pricing environment.
Domestic and commercial LPG cylinders also do not necessarily see identical revisions. A price increase or reduction in the commercial category does not automatically mean that the 14.2-kg household cylinder will see the same change.
The October revision is an example of this difference: commercial LPG prices have increased, while the domestic cylinder rates mentioned above remain unchanged.
Who Is Most Affected by the Latest LPG Revision?
The latest price adjustment primarily affects commercial LPG users. Restaurants, hotels, caterers, bakeries, cafés, dhabas and other businesses that use several 19-kg cylinders every month could see an increase in their overall fuel expenditure.
For households, however, there is no fresh increase in the 14.2-kg domestic cylinder rates listed for October 3.
Consumers should still check the latest price applicable in their location when booking a refill because LPG rates can differ from one city to another.
Check the Latest Rate Before Booking Your LPG Cylinder
With different prices applicable across cities and cylinder categories, consumers should confirm the latest local rate through their LPG distributor or the official channels of their oil marketing company before making a booking.
As of October 3, 2026, Delhi's 14.2-kg domestic LPG cylinder is listed at ₹942, while the 19-kg commercial cylinder costs ₹2,810. The key development for October is therefore the rise in commercial LPG prices, while household cylinder rates have remained unchanged in the figures provided.
