How is the price of LPG determined?
It is based on the Import Parity Price (IPP), which includes international prices, the dollar-rupee exchange rate, freight, taxes, etc. Prices vary across states due to state-specific taxes and logistics costs. Subsidies, such as the government’s Ujjwala scheme, reduce the actual expenditure of eligible consumers. The subsidy amount is transferred directly to the beneficiaries’ bank accounts.
