ISLAMABAD: The Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority (OGRA) has announced an increase in the price of Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) for June 2026, raising the cost of an 11.8-kilogram domestic cylinder by Rs58.51. The revised prices take effect from June 1, 2026.
Price Details
According to a notification issued by OGRA, the consumer price of LPG has been set at Rs308,763.89 per tonne for June, compared to Rs303,804.68 per tonne in May. This reflects an increase of Rs4,959.21 per tonne. Consequently, the price of an 11.8-kilogram domestic cylinder has risen from Rs3,584.89 to Rs3,643.40, marking an increase of Rs58.51.

The price hike is expected to affect domestic consumers who rely on LPG for cooking and heating purposes. The increase comes amid rising global energy prices and adjustments in local supply chains. OGRA stated that the revision is based on changes in international prices and other relevant factors.
Industry analysts have noted that the increase may put additional financial pressure on households, particularly those in low-income brackets. However, the authority emphasized that the adjustment is necessary to maintain supply stability and reflect market dynamics.
Consumers are advised to check the official prices at authorized dealers and report any overcharging to OGRA's helpline.
