Bangladesh Energy Regulatory Commission (BERC) has adjusted downward the price of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) by Tk 35 per 12kg cylinder to Tk 1,200 from Tk 1,235 as sold by the private companies. The new price rate came into effect from 6 p.m. Sunday.
BERC Chairman Abdul Jalil announced it at a virtual press conference on Sunday (Oct 2).
The price of different quantities of LPG cylinders will be determined accordingly.
The BERC said it adjusted the price after LPG prices went down in the global market.
The price of LPG sold by state-owned LP Gas Limited remains unchanged.
The price of LPG (autogas) used in cars has also been adjusted downward and now auto gas will be sold at Tk 55.92 per litre, which was Tk 57.55 earlier.
The BERC set the prices of LPG for the first time on Apr 12, 2021.
