LPG Gas Price Update May: Struggling with Rising LPG Prices? Here’s the Latest Update

Feeling the pinch every time you refill your gas cylinder? You’re not alone. For many families in Uttar Pradesh, even small hikes in LPG prices can throw off the whole month’s budget. When you’re juggling groceries, school fees, and bills, every rupee counts—especially for something as essential as cooking gas.

Let’s talk about what changed on May 28, what it means for your pocket, and which district you’re better or worse off in.

What Changed on May 2025?

On May 28, 2025, Indian Oil Corporation Limited released the new LPG cylinder rates across Uttar Pradesh. And while there haven’t been any dramatic price jumps, the rates aren’t the same everywhere.

Yep, depending on where you live, your 14.2 kg domestic LPG cylinder could cost you significantly more—or less—than your neighbor in another district.

Where Is LPG the Most Expensive?

If you’re living in Chandauli, you’re paying the highest LPG price in UP right now—₹934.5 for a single domestic cylinder. That’s a lot for just one essential refill.

And if you’re in Ambedkar Nagar, Azamgarh, Baliya, or Mau, you’re not far behind—rates here hover around the ₹930+ mark.

Which Districts Have the Cheapest LPG?

Here’s some relief if you live in Ghaziabad, Gautam Buddha Nagar, Baghpat, or Meerut—you’re paying just ₹850.5, the lowest rate in the state as of now.

That’s nearly ₹84 less than what people in Chandauli are paying for the same thing!
