Petroleum and Natural Gas Minister M Veerappa Moily today launched the sale of five-kg cooking gas cylinder at the non-subsidised rate of Rs.492 per cylinder, including taxes.
Unveiling the free trade LPG (cooking gas) scheme at a retail outlet of the state-run Bharat Petroleum oil marketing firm in Bangalore's southern suburb, Mr Moily said the new offer was revolutionary, as it would benefit 35 percent of the population, which is migratory in the country.
