New Delhi, May 1 (IANS) State-run oil marketing firms (OMCs) on Monday hiked the prices of subsidised cooking gas (LPG) by about Rs 2 per cylinder and of kerosene by 26 paise per litre.
The subsidised LPG price in Delhi was raised by Rs 1.87 per 14.2 kg cylinder to Rs 442.77. Prices vary by location as per applicable local taxes.
Besides, the price of subsidised kerosene was hiked by Rs 0.26 per litre. The government aims to eliminate subsidy on kerosene through a 25 paise increase every month.
