As the West Asia conflict continues to rage on, fuel prices remain a key concerns for households and transport users across India, with LPG, CNG and PNG rates seeing revisions at regular intervals amid global energy supply woes.
LPG supplies are under close monitoring amid prevailing geopolitical tensions even though no dry-outs have been reported at distributorships. This is because India meets more than 40 per cent of its crude imports and 90 per cent of its LPG imports from West Asian countries, including Saudi Arabia and Qatar.
The government, however, continues to offer subsidies under schemes such as Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana (PMUY), helping reduce the effective cost for eligible households. Under the scheme, over 10 crore low-income families have received gas connections.

Meanwhile, the Petroleum Ministry on Thursday rejected a report suggesting the country's LPG supply could take up to 4 years to recover, calling the claim "misleading".
"A claim circulating in a section of the media — attributed to an unnamed government official — that India's LPG supply may take up to four years to recover is misleading and creates an incorrect impression about the country's supply position," the ministry said in a statement.
It added that India has diversified procurement to the US, Norway, Canada, Algeria, and Russia with 800 TMT of assured import cargoes that have been already secured and are en route.
While LPG remains the primary cooking fuel for many households, CNG and PNG are emerging as more stable and economic alternatives. Consumers are advised to track city-wise price updates and policy updates to manage their fuel expenses effectively.
