LPG, CNG, PNG prices today, August 11: Check latest rates in Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, other cities

LPG, CNG, PNG prices today: Concerns about LPG, CNG and PNG pricing remain in focus even though retail rates have been unchanged for more than a month. The issue has stayed alive because domestic LPG cylinders continue to be sold below cost, while uncertainty over the US-Iran situation and wider supply risks in the Middle East has kept attention on India's fuel sourcing plans.

India is also looking to source up to a quarter of its liquefied petroleum gas imports from the United States by 2027 to reduce dependence on the Middle East, minimise supply disruptions and support efforts to secure a trade deal with Washington. At the same time, LPG sales in India have fallen 17.4% to 2.37 million tonnes, with industry officials attributing the decline mainly to a shift towards piped natural gas after the West Asia crisis.

Earlier this month, commercial LPG prices for hotels, restaurants and other establishments were cut by ₹192 per 19-kg cylinder. However, domestic LPG continues to be sold below cost.

Separately, junior oil minister Suresh Gopi said that the revenue loss of state fuel retailers on the sale of LPG, mainly used as cooking fuel, had narrowed to ₹188 per 14.2-kg cylinder in August from ₹500 in July. In a written reply to lawmakers, he said Indian Oil Corp, Bharat Petroleum Corp and Hindustan Petroleum Corp had been selling a cooking gas cylinder for households at ₹942 in Delhi since June 2026.

Gopi also said the government compensates fuel retailers for losses on the sale of cooking gas to households at below-market rates with a lag. He said the government had paid a subsidy of ₹30,000 crore towards clearing some dues for 2025/26 and 2026/27. Even after that payment, pending LPG dues to the state retailers were more than ₹59,000 crore as of July 31, he said.

The geopolitical situation remains uncertain. While the US and Iran are not directly engaged in talks, a proposed agreement between Iran and Oman is nearing completion that could give Tehran control over incoming traffic through the Strait of Hormuz. Iran has also laid down conditions for the US to reopen the strait.

Industry officials said LPG consumption had been falling since the West Asia crisis began, prompting restrictions on usage by hotels and restaurants.
