The cooking gas cylinders are set to get costlier. The price of a 14.2 kg LPG cylinder has been increased by ₹50, and it will now sell for ₹999.50 in Delhi, news agency ANI reported.

The rates of 14.2 kg LPG cylinder were previously hiked in March.
 
Last week, the price of the 19-kg commercial LPG cylinder was hiked by ₹102.50 to ₹2,355.50 against the earlier price of ₹2,253. Meanwhile, the 5-kg LPG cylinder costs ₹655.
 
The latest surge comes at a time when people are already struggling with rising petrol and diesel prices. Oil companies have been increasing the LPG rates in view of the sharp surge in global energy prices owing to the Russia-Ukraine war.
