The oil and gas regulation Authority (OGRA) has announced an increase in the price of liquefied oil gas (LPG), the revised rates coming into force from April 1, 2025.
According to an official notification, the price of the LPG has been increased by RS0.54 per kilogram, bringing the new rate to Rs248.37 per kg.
Consequently, the cost of a 11.8 kg domestic LPG cylinder increased by RS6.40, fixing the new price to RS2 930.71.
The revised price includes components such as production price, marketing margin, distribution margin and transport costs.
OGRA said that margins of marketing, distribution and transport total 35,000 rupees per metric ton. This includes 17,000 rupees for marketing, 10,000 rupees for distribution and 8,000 rupees for tonne transport.
The regulator regularly adjusts the prices of LPG according to changes in the costs of producers and associated margins, in order to reflect market conditions.
Earlier this month, OGRA announced a reduction in the price of domestic LPG cylinders.
According to the notification issued by OGRA, the price of the domestic LPG cylinder had been reduced by RS72.57 for an 11.8 kg cylinder.
