Litro Gas Lanka Company has reduced the price of its product by 452 rupees this month as usual compared to the international market price and related to the local gas price formula.
It was a relief for Litro Gas customers, while Laughs Gas customers did not get the same relief. Laughs Gas Company is still selling a 1.5 gas cylinder at a price that is Rs 804 more than Litro gas. The current price of 12.5 cylinder of Litro gas is Rs. 3186 while Laughs company is selling it at an unreasonable price of Rs. 3990.
Selling the same gas cylinder in a wide price range is a violation of the rights of a particular consumer segment and is also legally unacceptable.
On this basis, Laughs Company earns an unfair profit of Rs. 24 crore rupees in addition to its monthly profit.
We are waiting for those responsible to open their eyes to this unfair consumer exploitation.
