Price of domestic cooking gas has been hiked by Rs 50 per cylinder on Saturday, the second increase in two months.

Now, a 14.2-kg non-subsidised cooking gas cylinder, also known as LPG, will now cost ₹ 999.50 in Delhi.

The hike in cylinder prices has come at a time when people are already troubled by the rising prices of petrol and diesel in the country.
