14KG LPG Gas Price Today (March 10, 2026): Global prices of fuel and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) have surged as the US-Israel war with Iran disrupts energy supplies from the Middle East. The impact has also been felt in India, where oil companies have raised LPG prices.

Commercial LPG, widely used in hotels, restaurants and eateries, has seen a sharp increase, while domestic cooking gas prices have also gone up. Domestic LPG cylinders now cost Rs 60 more per unit, while commercial LPG prices have increased by Rs 114.5.

The price of a 14.2-kg domestic LPG cylinder in Delhi now stands at Rs 913. Meanwhile, reports suggest that the hospitality sector in states such as Maharashtra and Karnataka is facing a severe crisis due to a sudden shortage of commercial LPG cylinders.

Meanwhile, the Union government on Tuesday invoked the Essential Commodities Act to ensure an uninterrupted supply of domestic cooking gas. The move directs refineries and petrochemical units to maximise the production of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and divert key hydrocarbon streams to the LPG pool.

Under the order, the supply of natural gas to several sectors will be treated as a priority allocation and maintained-subject to operational availability-at 100% of their average consumption over the past six months. These sectors include domestic piped natural gas (PNG), compressed natural gas (CNG) for transport, LPG production including shrinkage requirements, as well as pipeline compressor fuel and other essential pipeline operational needs.

The order further states that natural gas supply to fertiliser plants should be maintained at 70% of their average consumption over the past six months, depending on operational availability. Gas marketing entities have also been directed to maintain supplies to tea industries, manufacturing units and other industrial consumers connected to the national gas grid at 80% of their past six-month average consumption.
