January 05, Colombo (LNW): Litro Gas has confirmed that there will be no change to the prices of its domestic liquefied petroleum (LP) gas for the month of January, adhering to the company’s established pricing formula.
The announcement, made on January 04, comes as a relief to households across Sri Lanka, who will see no increase in their gas costs.
Chairman Channa Gunawardena revealed that the price structure introduced in December 2024 will remain in place for the foreseeable future.
As per the current rates, the price of a 12.5 kg gas cylinder will stay at Rs. 3,690, while the 5 kg cylinder will continue to be sold for Rs. 1,482. Smaller cylinders, such as the 2.3 kg variety, will retain their price of Rs. 694.
This decision is in line with the company’s ongoing efforts to ensure stability in the local market, despite fluctuations in global energy prices.
It remains to be seen whether the company will continue to uphold these prices in the coming months, or if external factors such as changes in global energy prices will prompt a future revision.
For now, the public can rely on the stability of their domestic gas costs, at least for January.
