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.

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.
