LPG prices to rise by up to 18.5% as petrol, diesel prices drop in second October pricing window – COMAC
The Chamber of Oil Marketing Companies (COMAC) has projected a sharp increase in liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) prices in the second half of October 2026, even as petrol and diesel prices are expected to decline.
COMAC attributed the expected adjustments to developments in the international petroleum market, where crude oil prices have continued to face pressure from geopolitical tensions and supply disruptions.
The report linked the increase to renewed supply concerns, including attacks on tankers in the Strait of Hormuz, which have heightened fears of further disruptions to crude oil shipments.
