Staff Reporter | PNN:
The retail price of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) has been reduced once again. For October, the price of a 12 kg LPG cylinder has been lowered by 29 Taka, bringing it to 1,241 Taka.

The new price was announced on Tuesday (October 7) by the Bangladesh Energy Regulatory Commission (BERC) and has been effective since 6:00 PM the same day.

BERC Chairman Jalal Ahmed stated that in September, the price of a 12 kg LPG cylinder was 1,270 Taka.

At the same time, BERC has also reduced the price of autogas. For October, the retail price has been lowered by 1.38 Taka per liter, including VAT, making it 56.77 Taka per liter. In September, the price was 58.15 Taka per liter.

According to the BERC statement, this price adjustment has been made considering the declared Saudi CP (contract price) of Saudi Aramco’s propane and butane at 495 USD and 475 USD per metric ton, respectively.
