Ujjwala Yojana subsidy
If your family relies on the Ujjwala Yojana scheme, you'll still get a ₹300 subsidy per cylinder (up to 12 times a year).
But it's not just homes feeling the pinch. Commercial cylinders jumped by over ₹114 this month alone (now at up to ₹2,043.50 in Chennai), making it tougher for restaurants and even tech cafeterias like HCLTech's in Chennai, which had to close temporarily due to shortages.
