New Prices of 19 kg LPG Cylinders in Major Cities
According to data available on the official website of Indian Oil, the revised prices of 19 kg commercial LPG cylinders are as follows:
Delhi: ₹1,740.50
Mumbai: ₹1,692
Kolkata: ₹1,844.50
Chennai: ₹1,899.50
These cylinders are widely used by commercial establishments, which may now face higher operating costs due to the latest increase.
LPG Prices Reviewed Every Month
Oil marketing companies review LPG cylinder prices on the first day of every month. In January, commercial LPG prices were increased by ₹111, while February has seen a further hike of ₹50.
In contrast, prices had eased slightly towards the end of last year. In November and December, commercial LPG cylinder prices were reduced by ₹5 and ₹10, respectively. Before that, October saw a marginal increase of ₹15.50, while prices had fallen continuously for six months prior to October.
In Delhi, the price of a 19 kg commercial LPG cylinder stood at ₹1,803 in March last year and gradually declined to ₹1,580.50 by December, before rising again in early 2026.
Aviation Fuel Prices Reduced
Alongside the LPG revision, oil companies have reduced the price of Aviation Turbine Fuel (ATF) with effect from February 1, 2026.
In Delhi, ATF prices have been cut to $778.85 per kilolitre, or ₹91,393.39 per 1,000 litres. This marks a decline from the earlier price of ₹92,323.02. Prices have also been reduced in other major cities, including Kolkata, Mumbai and Chennai.
The reduction in ATF prices is expected to offer some cost relief to airlines, even as commercial LPG users face higher expenses this month.
