Commercial LPG prices cut by Rs 192, ATF rates up Rs 5/litre

NEW DELHI: (Aug 1) The prices of commercial LPG — used in establishments such as hotels and restaurants — were on Saturday cut by a steep Rs 192 per 19-kg cylinder while aviation turbine fuel (ATF) prices were hiked by Rs 5 per litre in line with divergent trends in benchmark rates.

While a 19-kg commercial LPG cylinder in Delhi now costs Rs 2,738 as against Rs 2,930 previously, ATF rates have been raised to Rs 115 per litre from Rs 110, according to price information from state-owned oil firms.

This is the second straight monthly reduction in commercial LPG rates following a Rs 183.5 cut on July 1. In case of ATF, the revision reverses the reduction by a similar proportion that was effected on July 1.
