ATF prices for domestic scheduled carriers have also been kept unchanged.
Domestic LPG, ATF under-recoveries
Speaking to reporters at the bi-weekly briefing on the situation in West Asia, Sujata Sharma, Joint-Secretary at the Union Petroleum Ministry said, state-run oil-marketing companies (OMCs) were incurring under-recoveries of ₹30 on every kilolitre of aviation turbine fuel (ATF) meant for domestic scheduled carriers.
Further, in response to a question from The Hindu, Ms. Sharma informed OMCs under-recoveries on domestic LPG presently stood at about ₹650 per cylinder.
Commercial LPG, 5-Kg FTL becomes expensive
The 19-kg commercial LPG cylinder in Delhi is now priced at ₹3,113.5 per cylinder whilst the 5-kg FTL is priced at ₹821.5.
The 14.2 kg LPG cylinder meant for domestic consumers continues to be sold at ₹913 per cylinder in Delhi.
Prices of commercial LPG have been hiked for the fourth time since the conflict in West Asia commenced February 28 this year.
They were last hiked by a steep ₹993 per cylinder May 1. This was preceded by another ₹195.5 per cylinder hike that was affected April 1 and the first of the hikes of ₹115 per cylinder that took place March 7.
A similar paradigm holds for the 5-kg free trade LPG. Price of the small cylinder has experienced its third hike since the conflict began.
It was last hiked by a steeper ₹261 per cylinder May 1, preceded by ₹51 hike on April 1.
Increased prices of 5kg free trade LPG (FTL) also translate to increased pressure, particularly on migrant labourers in urban and semi-urban areas who do not have local address proof and thus, rely on the mini-cooking cylinder that does not mandate any such requirement.
According to government data, public-sector OMCs have sold more than 2.72 lakh 5-kg FTL cylinders since April 3 this year.
ATF prices kept unchanged for domestic, international reduced
Prices of jet fuel for domestic scheduled flights have been kept unchanged for the second consecutive month in June whilst international carriers have witnessed a course reversal with the approximately $400 per kilolitre fall in price.
On May 1, the price of ATF for international airlines was pushed up $76.55 per kilolitre from $1,435 per kilolitre.
ATF price for domestic carriers last increased April 1 this year – by more than 9%.
Its current price remains unchanged at approximately ₹1.04 lakh crore per kilolitre in Delhi.
Speaking to The Hindu, Ravi Gosain, President of the Indian Association of Travel Operators (IATO) welcomed the reduction though taking note of the domestic ATF prices being unaltered, he sought to highlight complexities in pricing mechanisms centred on taxation structures and market dynamics.
“While global crude trends provide some relief, the benefits may not immediately translate into lower costs for domestic carriers,” he stated, adding, “Going forward, a more balanced and response pricing mechanism could help strengthen the sector’s competitiveness, improve airline margins, and ultimately create room for better connectivity and consumer benefits.”
