DHAKA, Feb 24, 2026 (BSS) – The Bangladesh Energy Regulatory Commission (BERC) today announced a Tk 15 reduction in the price of a 12-kilogram (kg) cylinder of Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG).

“Now, a 12 kg LPG cylinder will be sold to consumers at Tk 1,341 instead of Tk 1,356,” the commission said.

The new price will take effect from 6:00 pm on Monday (February 23), and all licensed LPG marketing companies are required to implement it.

BERC said the revision follows a change in the value-added tax (VAT) policy by the National Board of Revenue (NBR), which has withdrawn VAT at the production stage of LPG and imposed it at the import stage.
