India's commercial LPG prices have seen a significant hike, driven by global energy supply disruptions. The latest revision is the second upward revision in less than a month, adding to cost pressures for businesses such as hotels, restaurants, and hostels.

The highest jump has been seen in the price of the widely used 19 kg commercial LPG cylinder. In Delhi, the rate has climbed by ₹195.5, marking a 10.4% increase. City-wise LPG prices have also seen a rise, with Delhi seeing the highest price of ₹2,078.50.

Establishments that depend heavily on bulk LPG, especially in the food and hospitality sector, are now facing rising operational costs within a short span of time. ATF prices have also seen a steep surge, with domestic airlines in Delhi seeing a 114.55% increase and international airlines seeing a 107% increase.
