Uses of LPG and How it Can Impact Overall Prices?

Many of us don’t even know about the LPG full form. LPG stands for Liquefied Petroleum Gas. LPG is a crucial resource for cooking and heating, especially in areas where natural gas is unavailable or subject to extreme load shedding. It is also widely used in restaurants, rickshaws, and various industries as a fuel source.

The increase in LPG prices can have many impacts on the common people, especially low-income families, affecting their essential expenses. Furthermore, it may directly contribute to price hikes in restaurants & small food stalls, rickshaw fares, and products associated with industries that rely on LPG as fuel.

Conclusion

Overall, it is a marginal increase that might not impact the daily lives of people immensely. However, if we compare today’s LPG rate (Rs. 254.30) with its rate in June 2024 (Rs. 234.60), the difference is +Rs. 19.71. Furthermore, the petrol & diesel prices have also increased recently. Let’s hope that the gas will be available at the rate stated above, as the market rate is generally higher than the government rate. Moreover, the worsening issue in the Middle East may escalate the LPG price at any time in the coming days.
