Commercial LPG prices are set to increase before the festive season, posing new cost challenges for restaurants and other businesses that depend on gas.
The government has announced a hike in commercial LPG prices effective from the upcoming festive season. This move is expected to raise operating costs for restaurants, hotels and other businesses that rely heavily on LPG for cooking and heating. Industry bodies have urged stakeholders to plan for the increased expenses and explore alternative energy options where feasible. The price increase comes as part of a broader effort to manage fuel demand and ensure supply stability during peak consumption periods.
