Why do LPG prices increase and decrease every month?
Usually, oil companies review the prices of LPG cylinders on the first of every month, although due to international market pressure, it can be changed in the middle of the month also. LPG prices are mainly decided on the basis of the rate of crude oil and LPG in the international market, exchange rate of rupee against dollar, cost of freight and local taxes of the states.
Big relief to Ujjwala Yojana beneficiaries: The government continues to provide a bumper subsidy of ₹300 per 14.2 kg domestic cylinder to eligible beneficiaries of Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana (PMUY), which is transferred directly to their linked bank account (through DBT).
