The war between Iran and Israel has reached its third week. In such a situation, Indians have lodged many complaints about non-availability of LPG supply at such times. The government says that there is sufficient quantity of LPG available in the country, there is no need to panic. On the other hand, there is a constant fear in the minds of people regarding the price of petrol and diesel as to what their prices will be in the future. Let us know in this news what are the prices of LPG and petrol and diesel in major cities of the country today i.e. on 19 March 2026.
Due to the closure of Hormuz, India has succeeded to some extent in meeting the supply of crude oil from other sources like Russia and West Africa. However, importing oil from outside the Middle East is more expensive because freight and insurance charges are higher.
Prices have increased before
Amid supply disruptions, the government has increased the prices of both domestic and commercial LPG cylinders. In early March, the price of a 14.2 kg domestic cooking gas cylinder increased by Rs 60, while the price of a 19 kg commercial cylinder increased by Rs 144 in major cities of the country.
Amidst the deepening tension in the Middle East, oil prices increased by more than 5% and crossed $108 per barrel in international markets today. However, on Sunday, March 19, the prices of petrol and diesel remained almost stable in many cities of India. Despite huge fluctuations in global oil markets due to ongoing geopolitical tensions in the region, prices remained stable.
