Liquefied petroleum gas prices in Pakistan have climbed steeply, hitting up to Rs750 per kilogram in northern regions, while authorities contemplate moving from a monthly price schedule to daily adjustments.
Officials are evaluating a daily pricing structure to supersede the current monthly arrangement for LPG, designed to stop winter price surges and restrict hoarding.
Yet, worries exist that this policy change might drive cylinder costs past Rs10,000.
Importers have demanded an update to the existing formula and recommended fixing prices on a weekly or daily schedule instead of monthly.
The possible transition to daily pricing arrives amid worries that LPG cylinder expenses could surpass Rs10,000, increasing monetary strain on families prior to the winter months.
