LPG prices to increase

Effective midnight on Sunday, consumers will be paying more for liquefied petroleum gas (LPG).

The 100 lb cylinder will retail at $166.39, up from $160.39, while the price of the 25 lb cylinder will increase from $45.20 to $46.70. The 22 lb cylinder will move from $39.94 to $41.26, and the 20 lb cylinder will now cost $37.51, up from $36.31.

In its policy of allowing retail prices to be reflective of those on the international market, the government has taken this opportunity to adjust the retail prices of LPG. (JK/BGIS)
