OGRA raises LPG prices, impact on households expected

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan’s Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority (OGRA) announced an increase in liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) prices on Saturday.

According to an OGRA notification, the price of LPG has been raised by PKR 6.37 per kilogram, bringing the new price for domestic cylinders to PKR 75.21 per kilogram. The new rates will take effect from February 1, 2026.

OGRA said the increase was due to rising global LPG prices and higher import costs. The price hike is expected to impact households, particularly those reliant on LPG for cooking and domestic use.

The regulator urged consumers to consider alternative energy sources to help manage household expenses amid rising costs.
