However, there was no change in the rates of domestic LPG cylinders used in households.The price cut means that a 19-kg commercial LPG cylinder is now cheaper by ₹91.50 in Delhi, and will be, at least for the next one month, available here at ₹1,885 instead of the earlier ₹1,976.50. Among other metros, it is cheaper by ₹100 ( ₹1,995.50 from ₹2,095,50) in Kolkata, while the corresponding rates for Chennai and Kolkata are ₹96 ( ₹2,045 from ₹2,141) and ₹92.50 ( ₹1,844 from ₹1,936.50) respectively.This is the fifth straight price reduction in as many months for commercial cylinders; on August 1, it was slashed by ₹36. Meanwhile, the cost of a domestic cylinder(14.2 kg) has been unchanged since a hike of ₹50 on July 6.It is to be noted that on the first day of every month, some new and few revised rules come into effect; these include revision in LPG and fuel rates as well.
