LPG Cylinder Prices Today: Domestic Rates Remain Unchanged; Check Prices in Major Cities
Households received relief from any fresh increase in cooking gas costs as the price of the standard 14.2-kg domestic LPG cylinder remained unchanged on September 19, 2026. Oil marketing companies did not announce a new revision in household cylinder rates for the day.
The latest update means consumers will continue to pay the existing price applicable in their city. Domestic LPG rates vary across India because transportation costs, local charges and other location-specific factors can affect the final retail price.
According to the supplied rate information, a 14.2-kg domestic cylinder costs ₹942 in Delhi, ₹968 in Kolkata, ₹941.50 in Mumbai and ₹957.50 in Chennai. Consumers should confirm the amount displayed by their distributor while booking because the final payable price is determined by location.
Domestic LPG prices remain stable
No fresh change was reported in the price of the 14.2-kg cylinder used by households for cooking. This stability is important for families because LPG forms a regular part of monthly household expenditure.
The source report states that the previous LPG revision took place on September 1. However, consumers should note that domestic and commercial cylinders are separate categories, and a revision in one category does not necessarily mean that the other category has also changed.
The September 1 adjustment primarily affected the 19-kg commercial LPG cylinder, while domestic cylinder prices remained unchanged. Commercial cylinders are commonly used by restaurants, hotels, caterers, tea stalls and other businesses requiring gas in larger quantities.
Domestic LPG cylinder rates in major cities
The following are the reported prices for a standard 14.2-kg domestic cylinder:
| City | Domestic LPG Price |
|---|---|
| Delhi | ₹942.00 |
| Kolkata | ₹968.00 |
| Mumbai | ₹941.50 |
| Chennai | ₹957.50 |
| Gurugram | ₹950.50 |
| Noida | ₹939.50 |
| Bengaluru | ₹944.50 |
These prices are based on the rate information available for September 2026. Actual booking amounts can differ depending on the customer’s location, distributor and any applicable delivery-related conditions.
Commercial cylinders priced differently
Commercial LPG cylinders are not sold at the same rate as domestic cylinders. The commonly used commercial unit weighs 19 kg and is priced considerably higher because it is intended for business use.
Commercial LPG prices can be revised independently and often change more frequently than domestic rates. Any increase in commercial gas costs can affect restaurants, bakeries, caterers, roadside food vendors and other enterprises that depend on LPG for daily operations.
Businesses sometimes pass a portion of the additional expense to customers through higher food or service prices. For this reason, commercial LPG revisions can have a wider impact even when household cylinder rates remain stable.
Why LPG prices are reviewed regularly
Public-sector oil marketing companies periodically review LPG prices by considering several domestic and international factors. These may include global fuel rates, the rupee-dollar exchange rate, freight costs and supply conditions.
India imports a significant share of its energy requirements, which makes domestic fuel costs sensitive to movements in international markets. Geopolitical tensions, disruption of important shipping routes and volatility in crude oil or petroleum-product prices can also affect pricing decisions.
A market increase does not always result in an immediate change for household consumers. The timing and extent of any retail revision depend on decisions made by oil companies and the government’s broader pricing and subsidy framework.
How to check the latest LPG price
Customers should verify the current rate through the official website or mobile application of their LPG provider. Rates may also be checked through the authorised distributor while booking a refill.
Before making a payment, consumers should:
- Confirm the cylinder category and weight.
- Review the amount displayed in the official booking application.
- Avoid transferring money to an unknown personal account.
- Request a receipt after delivery.
- Check that the cylinder seal is intact.
- Confirm the weight and safety condition if anything appears unusual.
Customers should never disclose an OTP, banking password, card PIN or UPI PIN to anyone claiming to process an LPG subsidy or mandatory verification. Genuine service providers do not require these confidential credentials over an unsolicited phone call or WhatsApp message.
LPG subsidy may differ by eligibility
The retail price displayed at the time of booking and the effective cost after subsidy may not be identical for every customer. Subsidy eligibility depends on the applicable government rules and the consumer’s records.
Eligible customers should keep their LPG connection, Aadhaar and bank details correctly linked wherever required. They can check the subsidy status using their provider’s official portal or application. A delay in subsidy credit should be raised through the authorised customer-care channel rather than through an unverified agent.
For September 19, the key update is that households do not face a fresh revision in the price of the 14.2-kg domestic LPG cylinder. Consumers should nevertheless check the latest local rate before placing a refill order, as prices and applicable benefits may vary by city and eligibility.
