One connection for every family of 4
India had 14.9 crore LPG connections in 2015, which will increase to 32.9 crore by 2025. This means that now every family of 4 has one LPG connection. This is an unprecedented achievement. However, domestic production has been stuck at around 12-13 lakh tonnes for the last 8 years! In 2024-25, only 11.7 lakh tonnes were produced against the consumption of 28.6 lakh tonnes.
This has resulted in a 20% increase in LPG imports in 10 years. Now, domestic prices depend on the international market. In the 2025-26 budget, the government has allocated ₹11,100 crore for LPG subsidy. Last year, ₹22,000 crore was given to oil companies because they were selling cylinders at a loss. This shows that the government is committed to providing relief to the general public.
How to convert LPG from liters to kilograms
The global average price of LPG is ₹64.74 per liter in Indian currency. Since the density of LPG is about 0.54 kiloliters, its rate in kilograms will be as follows:
1 liter LPG = 0.54 kilograms
Now, let’s calculate the price per kilogram:
Price per kilogram = ₹64.74 / 0.54 = ₹119.88/kg
This means that the average price of LPG in India is ₹119.88 per kilogram. To put this in context, if our 14.2 kg domestic LPG cylinder was available in every country, the average price of the cylinder would be ₹1702.42. This will help you understand the real price of LPG and its relation to the international market.
