ATF price hiked, commercial LPG rate cut

Aviation turbine fuel (ATF) prices were hiked 3 per cent on Friday, while the price of commercial LPG cylinders was reduced Rs 33.50, in line with fluctuations in international benchmark rates.
Jet fuel (ATF) price was increased by Rs 2,677.88 per kilolitre, or 2.9 per cent, to Rs 92,021.93 per kl in the national capital — home to one of the busiest airports in the country, according to state-owned fuel retailers. This increase will add to the burden on commercial airlines, for whom fuel makes up for almost 40 per cent of the operating cost.
