- 01 Sep, 2026
The beginning of September 2026 has brought a fresh price revision for commercial LPG consumers. Oil marketing companies have increased the price of the 19-kg commercial LPG cylinder from September 1, potentially raising operating costs for restaurants, hotels, catering businesses and other establishments that rely heavily on cooking gas.
According to the price details available for September 1, the 19-kg commercial LPG cylinder has become costlier by ₹9.50 in some markets. The latest revision comes into effect from the first day of the month.
Household consumers, however, have been spared from an increase this time. There has been no change in the price of the standard 14.2-kg domestic LPG cylinder, meaning families will not face an additional burden on their cooking gas expenses because of this particular revision.
Prices of standard 5-kg and 10-kg cylinders have also reportedly remained unchanged. However, the rate of a 5-kg non-domestic cylinder has been increased.
Here is a closer look at the LPG price changes taking effect from September 1, 2026.
19-Kg Commercial LPG Cylinder Becomes Costlier
The key change this month concerns commercial LPG.
According to the available price information, the 19-kg commercial cylinder has seen an upward revision from September 1. These cylinders are widely used by restaurants, hotels, roadside eateries, catering companies and several other commercial establishments.
Even a relatively small increase in LPG rates can raise operating expenses for businesses that consume multiple cylinders every month.
The actual retail price of an LPG cylinder varies across cities, so consumers should check the latest applicable rate in their location before placing an order.
Domestic LPG Cylinder Prices Remain Unchanged
There is better news for households. The price of the commonly used 14.2-kg domestic LPG cylinder has not been increased as part of the September 1 revision.
This means household consumers will continue to pay the existing applicable rate for their domestic cylinders, depending on their city.
The absence of a domestic LPG price hike is significant because any increase in cooking gas rates directly affects household budgets, particularly for families dependent primarily on LPG for everyday cooking.
Consumers should remember that LPG prices can differ from one city to another, and the final amount should always be checked with the authorised distributor or official oil marketing company platform.
What Happened to 5-Kg and 10-Kg LPG Cylinder Prices?
The September revision has not resulted in a price increase for standard 5-kg and 10-kg LPG cylinders, according to the information available.
The regular 5-kg Chhotu LPG cylinder continues to be priced at ₹349.50, while the XTRALITE variant remains unchanged at ₹339.
However, the 5-kg non-domestic LPG cylinder has become slightly more expensive. Its price has reportedly increased by ₹2 to ₹764.
This distinction is important because domestic, non-domestic and commercial LPG products can have different pricing structures.
Delhi Commercial LPG Price Rises to ₹2,747.50
Commercial LPG users in Delhi will now have to spend more for a 19-kg cylinder.
Following the September 1 revision, the price of the 19-kg commercial LPG cylinder in the national capital has reportedly increased by ₹9.50, taking the new rate to ₹2,747.50.
Businesses that use several cylinders each month could see a larger cumulative impact from the increase.
New Commercial LPG Rate in Noida
Commercial LPG prices have also been revised in Noida.
According to the available figures, the 19-kg commercial cylinder that was previously priced at ₹2,738 will now cost ₹2,747.50.
Businesses should verify the latest local rate with their LPG distributor because applicable prices may vary by location and supplier.
Mumbai Commercial Cylinder Price Reaches ₹2,701
Mumbai has also witnessed an increase in the price of commercial LPG.
The 19-kg cylinder is now reported to cost ₹2,701 in the city. Before the latest revision, its price was ₹2,691.50.
This represents an increase of ₹9.50 based on the figures provided.
The higher rate could particularly matter for Mumbai's large hospitality and food-service sector, where commercial LPG is widely used.
Kolkata and Chennai LPG Prices Also Revised
Commercial LPG prices have also changed in Kolkata and Chennai.
According to the supplied price information, the 19-kg commercial LPG cylinder in Kolkata is now listed at ₹2,982, compared with the previous figure of ₹2,872.50.
In Chennai, the new price of a 19-kg commercial cylinder is stated to be ₹2,916.50, compared with ₹2,906 earlier.
Consumers should note that the Kolkata figures supplied in the source indicate a much larger increase than the ₹9.50 revision mentioned for other cities. Therefore, users in Kolkata should verify the current official rate before making a purchase or relying on this figure for budgeting.
Who Will Be Most Affected by the LPG Price Increase?
The September 1 LPG price revision primarily affects commercial consumers rather than households.
Restaurants, hotels, caterers, bakeries, canteens and other food businesses frequently depend on 19-kg commercial cylinders. For businesses with high monthly consumption, repeated changes in LPG prices can influence overall operating costs.
Household consumers have received some relief because the 14.2-kg domestic LPG cylinder price has not been increased in the latest revision.
Check Official LPG Rates Before Booking
LPG prices are periodically revised, and rates can differ between cities. Consumers should therefore check the latest price displayed by their authorised LPG distributor or oil marketing company before booking a cylinder.
For September 1, 2026, the major takeaway is that commercial LPG has become more expensive in several cities, while the price of the standard 14.2-kg domestic cooking gas cylinder remains unchanged.
The revision means businesses using commercial cylinders may face a modest increase in their monthly fuel expenses, while household LPG users have avoided an additional price burden for now.
