Domestic cooking gas (or LPG) price was hiked by Rs 50 per cylinder on Tuesday, in line with a spike in international energy prices, sources said.

A 14.2-kg non-subsidised LPG cylinder will now cost Rs 949.50 in Delhi, marking the first increase in LPG rates since early October.

Prices have remained unchanged since early October despite the cost of raw materials spiralling.

The 19-kg commercial cylinder now costs Rs 2003.50.
