At the same time, after the increase in the price of commercial cylinder from today, now you will get 19 kg LPG cylinder in Delhi for Rs 2012 instead of Rs 1907. So at the same time, instead of Rs 1987 in Kolkata, it will be available for Rs 2095. Whereas, its price in Mumbai has now increased from 1857 to now 1963 rupees.
Will domestic cylinder be costlier by Rs 100 to 200?
Along with this, it is being said that for the last several months, relief has been given in the prices of non-subsidized gas cylinders for the assembly elections and this relief has been given only for the elections. On the one hand, the prices of crude oil are increasing and now have crossed $ 102 per barrel. Because of this, it is also being feared that after the election i.e. after March 7, the price of domestic gas may increase and increase by more than Rs 100 to 200 in one go. Hold on yo heart, in a few days there is going to be another shock of inflation.
