ISLAMABAD: The Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority (Ogra) announced a significant increase in Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) prices for October 2024.

The new rates will see a rise of Rs7.31 per kilogramme for both domestic and commercial cylinders.

The Ogra’s monthly review attributed the price hike to a 3.84 percent increase in the Saudi Aramco-CP, a benchmark for LPG pricing.
