LAUGFS Gas PLC has raised the price of its 12.5 kg domestic LPG cylinder by Rs. 1,775, from Rs. 4,965 to Rs. 6,740, with effect from midnight today (13).
The price of the 5 kg cylinder has also gone up by Rs. 732, from Rs. 1,988 to Rs. 2,720.
The company attributed the revision to rising international LPG procurement costs, saying higher global market prices have increased the cost of securing shipments to Sri Lanka. It said domestic prices will be adjusted in line with prevailing international market rates.
LAUGFS Gas assured customers that it will make every effort to maintain a continuous supply of LPG refills through its dealer network. Customers can call the hotline on 1345 for information on refill availability and district-wise prices.
