India vs Pakistan LPG Price: Amidst the ongoing tension in the Middle East, there is a shortage of gas cylinders across the world. In such a situation, this question arises in the minds of many people that what is its situation in the neighboring countries. Let us tell you that on one hand people in Pakistan are facing rising gas prices, on the other hand shortage of gas has also become a big problem. In many areas, people have to wait for hours for gas to cook, whereas in India, regular supply of LPG cylinders is reaching most of the houses.
How much does a gas cylinder cost in India and Pakistan?
According to recent data, a 14.2 kg domestic LPG cylinder is available in India for around Rs 853. Whereas in Pakistan, the price of LPG cylinder of the same capacity is more than Rs 1,000 in Indian Rupees. That means, in terms of price, LPG cylinder in Pakistan is costlier than India.
This is the reason why the Government of India says that compared to many countries of the world, LPG is being provided to Indian consumers at a relatively lower price. Although the prices in both the countries keep changing from time to time as per the international market and government policies, but in the current situation, the economic burden of gas on the consumers of Pakistan is considered to be higher than that of India.

Gas shortage is a bigger problem than price.
The discussion of gas in Pakistan is not limited to price only. There, shortage of natural gas has been a matter of constant concern for the last few years. During the winter season, there have been reports of gas supply being closed for hours in many cities. Many families have to resort to alternative fuels for cooking. In some places, people are able to prepare food only when gas is available late at night or early in the morning.
On the other hand, in India too, LPG prices affect people’s budget, but the situation regarding availability of gas is relatively better. Due to Ujjwala scheme and expansion of LPG distribution network, cylinders are being delivered even to remote areas of the country. This is why a correct comparison can be made only by looking at both price and availability together.
