What Happened Overnight?
Late last night, LPG distributors confirmed a fresh revision in prices due to changes in international rates and local supply pressure. When people woke up today, the new price list was already in effect. This surprise update means both domestic and commercial users must adjust their monthly budgets again. Some shopkeepers even reported long queues in the morning, as customers wanted to refill their cylinders before the next sudden hike.
New Official LPG Prices in Pakistan (29 November 2025)

| Domestic 11.8kg | 3,150 | 3,380 | +230 |
| Commercial 45.4kg | 12,100 | 12,870 | +770 |
Why Did the LPG Price Increase Again?
The LPG market in Pakistan is directly affected by global fuel trends. When international prices go up, the impact reaches local consumers within a few days. Officials say the following reasons played a major role in this sudden increase:
- Rise in import cost
- Higher transportation charges
- Low supply in colder regions
- Increased demand as winter intensifies
A local dealer in Karachi said, “Every winter we face the same issue. The demand suddenly shoots up, and the prices follow.”

Impact on Pakistani Households
For many middle-class families, even a small increase in LPG price hits hard. Those who buy domestic cylinders every 20 to 25 days will now spend an extra Rs. 700–900 per month depending on usage.
People living in rural areas, where piped gas is not available, are affected the most. Some families have started shifting temporarily to wood or coal because buying an LPG refill every week is becoming expensive.
