Although domestic LPG cylinder price has not changed since a March hike but the commercial LPG registered increases twice sine the onset of West Asia conflict.
Crude Oil prices have seen volatility worldwide due to disruption of global oil and liquified natural gas supply across the Strait of Hormuz, the critical waterway through which 20% of energy export takes place. Since Iran conflict with US-Israel began on 28 February, oil prices jumped by about 50%. However, the Indian government stepped in to cushion consumers from the impact of change in oil prices and to control inflation. State-run oil companies determine LPG price in India which is revised every month.
