LPG prices for cooking in Bangladesh are much higher compared to neighboring countries, and official government prices are not being implemented in the market. Despite a recent hike of Tk 252 for a 12-kg cylinder, market instability and higher sales prices persist.
  • The set price of cooking LPG in Bangladesh is much higher than in neighboring countries like India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, and Nepal.
  • Although the Bangladesh Energy Regulatory Commission (BERC) determines the price, it is never implemented and gas is sold at higher rates in the market.
  • The official price for a 12-kg LPG cylinder has recently been increased by Tk 252.
  • Over the past three months, prices of LPG raw materials propane and butane as well as import costs have increased in the international market.
  • Government bodies have failed to enforce the official prices, forcing consumers to pay extra for cooking gas.
