Good news for households and small businesses: the Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority (OGRA) has reduced the LPG price in Pakistan for October 2025. This latest adjustment will bring relief for millions of families, particularly in rural areas where piped natural gas is not available.
LPG Price Update – October 2025
| Category | New Rate (October 2025) |
|---|---|
| 11.8 kg Domestic Cylinder | Rs 2,448.33 |
| Previous September Price | Rs 2,527.47 |
| Per Cylinder Reduction | Rs 79.14 |
| Price Per Kg | Rs 207.80 (approx.) |
| Consumer Price Per Tonne | Rs 207,485.64 |
| Producer Price Per Cylinder | Rs 1,960.99 |
How Much Will Consumers Save?
According to the official OGRA notification, the revised prices show clear savings for households and small businesses.
- Rs 79.14 less per cylinder compared to last month.
- Rs 6.70 reduction per kg, easing kitchen budgets.
- Rs 6,706.78 lower per tonne for bulk usage.
This decrease will directly reduce cooking and heating costs for domestic users, while small restaurants and tea shops will also benefit from lower operating expenses.
Why Did LPG Prices Drop?
OGRA explained that the October 2025 price cut is linked to international market trends:
- Saudi Aramco Contract Price (CP) fell by 3.78% in September.
- Pakistani Rupee vs US Dollar improved slightly (0.23%).
- The stronger global LPG price drop outweighed currency fluctuations.

Impact on Households & Businesses
This price cut brings visible relief across Pakistan:
- Households → Lower fuel costs help families manage rising living expenses.
- Small Businesses → Restaurants, tea stalls, and shops using LPG will save more.
- Rural Areas → Communities without piped gas get major benefit since LPG is their primary source.
For many families, this adjustment will make it easier to handle cooking and heating expenses during the upcoming colder months.
Future Price Outlook
Energy experts caution that LPG rates in Pakistan are revised every month and depend on several global and domestic factors:
- Global LPG supply and demand balance.
- The US Dollar–Pakistani Rupee exchange rate.
- Saudi Aramco’s international LPG contract price.
If international prices rise or the rupee weakens, costs may increase again. But if the downward global trend continues, Pakistani consumers could enjoy more reductions in the coming months.
Long-Term Energy Suggestions
To provide consistent relief, experts suggest Pakistan should work on sustainable policies:
- Subsidies for low-income families to avoid sudden fuel shocks.
- Promotion of solar, wind, and biogas as alternatives.
- Boosting local LPG production to reduce import dependency
Final Thought
The OGRA LPG price cut in October 2025 is a welcome step for Pakistan’s households and small businesses. With a Rs 79 reduction per domestic cylinder, families will breathe easier when it comes to managing monthly expenses.
However, energy pricing in Pakistan remains highly linked to global markets and currency movements. For now, this cut provides much-needed relief, but long-term reforms and renewable energy promotion will be key to ensuring stability in the country’s energy sector.
