Burning a hole in common man's pocket, this is the sixth straight hike of LPG cylinder prices. The public lament that price hike has been happening almost every month since last August.
It may be recalled that lastly, the prices were increased by over Rs 19 on January 1, 2020.
While the government provides higher subsidy to subsidised customers via the direct benefit transfer scheme, the non-subsidised category has no such protection. Those buying non-subsidised cylinders pay the market price plus the GST on market price.
