LPG, CNG, PNG prices today (September 28): Check latest rates in Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, other cities

LPG, CNG, PNG prices today: Domestic LPG, CNG, and PNG prices remain stable across major metro cities, insulating retail consumers from ongoing fluctuations in international energy benchmarks. The steady pricing comes at a critical juncture as global oil markets experience heightened anxiety, driven by sharp movements in crude benchmarks.

Delhi offers the lowest CNG and PNG rates among all four metros, primarily driven by lower local taxes and high-density pipeline distribution. While domestic LPG rates are benchmarked at uniform import parities, local levies create noticeable price gaps between the northern and southern corridors.

Domestic LPG cylinders, standard across millions of Indian kitchens, remain sensitive to global crude and international benchmark fluctuations. State-run oil marketing companies adjust non-subsidised rates monthly, with a standard 14.2-kg domestic cylinder priced differently across states due to local taxes and transportation logistics.

US-Iran war update

In a sharp escalation of rhetoric following the collapse of recent peace overtures, Iranian Foreign Minister Seyyed Abbas Araghchi declared that Tehran is fully prepared to confront the United States in a "doomsday war" if military aggression resumes.

Donald Trump has rejected Iran’s latest proposal to end the war and reopen the Strait of Hormuz as experts say the United States president believes Washington has more to gain by waiting than by accepting Tehran’s terms at this moment.

On Sunday, Iranian ⁠⁠Foreign ⁠⁠Minister Abbas Araghchi said Tehran had ⁠⁠seen the initial reaction from ‌‌Trump to its proposal but had yet to receive a response through ⁠⁠mediators. In the latest diplomatic efforts, Qatar has played a role in mediating talks between Iran and the US on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly meeting in New York.
