In India, the OMCs sell 14.2 kg cylinder to domestic households at the prices prevalent in the open market, however, the central government provides subsidies for 12 such cylinders to every household each year with the help of a direct benefit transfer in their linked bank accounts.
LPG prices in India depend on key global factors such as international oil and gas prices and the rate of the Indian rupee against the US dollar.
