Commercial LPG cylinder price cut by ₹100
The reduction in the price of commercial liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) has brought small relief to owners of restaurants, eateries and tea shops who had been struggling to get back on their feet after the lockdown.
Effective January 1, the price of one 19 kg commercial LPG cylinder has been reduced by ₹100.
“Last month they had hiked the price of commercial cylinder by ₹130 each. And since last year, the price of cylinder used by restaurants and tea shops had almost doubled. This relief therefore comes only as a small comfort. However, we are headed towards the third COVID-19 wave and already seating has been reduced in restaurants to 50%,” said M. Ravi, President of Chennai Hotels’ Association, who went on to say that restaurants were fixing daily menus according to the prices of vegetables.
