New Delhi: The price of subsidised Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG) cooking gas was today hiked by about Rs 2 per cylinder and kerosene rate by 26 paisa a litre as government looks to eliminate subsidy on the fuel through small hikes.

 

 

LPG price in Delhi was hiked by Rs 1.87 per 14.2-kg cylinder to Rs 442.77 per bottle, according to state-owned oil firms.

Oil firms had last raised price of subsidised cooking gas by Rs 5.57 to Rs 440.90 per 14.2-kg cylinder on April 1st.

This hike came as the state-owned oil firms on previous two occasions first of Februarys 1st and later on March 1st-did not affect any significant rise in prices in view of assembly elections in states like Uttar Pradesh.

Prior to that, they had raised rates by nearly Rs 2 per cylinder for eight months in line with government decision to cut subsidises through calibrated increases every month.

The rate of non-subsidised cooking gas (LPG) was cut by Rs 92 per cylinder in line with international trends.

On April 1st, the government has reduced the price of LPG cylinder by Rs 14.50.

Non-subsidised LPG is bought by consumers who have either given up their subsidies or exhausted the quota of 12 bottles of 14.2-kg in a year at below market price.

 

 

Subsidised kerosene rate was hiked by Rs 0.26 per litre.

A litre of kerosene now costs Rs 19.55 in Mumbai.

The government is looking at eliminating subsidy on kerosene through small 25 paisa increase every month.

According to Oil companies, the price of jet fuel or ATF was cut by a marginal 0.4 per cent to Rs 51,696 per kilolitre. This reduction comes on back of a 5.1 per cent cut effected from April 1st.

Oil firms revise rates of ATF and cooking fuel on 1st of every month based on oil price and foreign exchange rate in the preceding month.
