It should be noted that state-run oil corporations play a major role in setting the price of LPG, and that price is subject to vary every month in accordance with the price of crude oil globally.
Assam's LPG prices grow in response to increases in crude oil, and vice versa.
The low-income section of the population in Assam is currently eligible for subsidized home LPG gas cylinders (14.2 kilograms) from the Indian government. The customer's bank account will receive a direct transfer of the subsidy amount. In India nowadays, the majority of people have easy access to cooking gas. In Assam (Guwahati), the cost of a domestic LPG cylinder is Rs. 952.
