Major setback to Common Man...Cylinder price Hike..!?
Today, the first day of the month, the price of a cylinder has been raised by more than 100 rupees. The price of a cooking gas cylinder is usually adjusted on the first day of each month. The cylinder price has been fixed today (March 1) in that category. Pricing is high as expected. The price of a cylinder has increased by Rs.105. That means only the price of a cylinder for commercial use has gone up. So housewives need not worry.
It is noteworthy that the price of a 14.2 kg cooking cylinder for home use has not changed since october 2021. But the price of commercial cylinders is currently high due to the Russia-Ukraine war.
