DHAKA, April 3, 2022 (BSS) - The government has adjusted the price of Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) upward and now a 12 kilogram (Kg) LPG cylinder will be sold to the consumers at Taka 1,439 instead of 1,391 at private level.

The Bangladesh Energy Regulatory Commission (BERC) announced the new price at an online press conference here today.

Due to the Russia-Ukraine conflict, the price of gas has been adjusted at the private level in the country, said BERC sources.

The new price will be effective from 6 pm today.

The price of LPG produced by state-owned companies has not been changed as the cost of production has not changed and therefore, the official price of 12-kg LPG has remained at Taka 591.
