The latest revision comes after ATF prices were raised by Rs 6.28 per litre, or 5.46 per cent, in September, following a Rs 5 per litre increase in August. ATF accounts for up to 40 per cent of operating costs for airlines, making fuel prices a key cost factor for carriers. Alongside, commercial LPG rates were hiked by Rs 62.59 per 19-kg cylinder. Commercial LPG prices were raised by Rs 9.50 per 19-kg cylinder in September, following two consecutive monthly reductions of Rs 192 in August and Rs 183.50 in July.

The price of the 5-kg market-priced cooking gas LPG cylinder, called 5-kg FTL, has also been increased from Rs 762 to Rs 764.

Jet fuel or ATF price was cut by Rs 5 per litre on Wednesday on softening international oil prices. Aviation turbine fuel (ATF) now costs Rs 110 a litre in Delhi, industry sources said. This is the first reduction since the West Asia crisis led to a spike in jet fuel rates to a record high.

India setting up the ATF price stabilisation fund is a very good solution to address the problem of higher jet fuel costs being faced by the domestic airlines, a senior IATA executive has said. While mentioning that the current jet fuel scenario globally is unprecedented in terms of the cost impact, Hemant Mistry, Director Energy Transition at IATA, cautioned that if the situation continues, there would have to be more flight reductions. The International Air Transport Association (IATA) represents over 370 airlines, including Air India, IndiGo, Air India Express and SpiceJet. The grouping accounts for around 85 per cent of the global air traffic. Mistry said the jet fuel situation in terms of cost impact is unprecedented. "If the situation continues, there will have to be more demand destruction... that is the only way to manage the situation, it is an extreme situation," he told PTI. Demand destruction broadly refers to a reduction in flights amid rising operational costs, drive

Aviation turbine fuel (ATF) prices for domestic airlines remained unchanged on Friday as state-owned oil companies decided to absorb the rise in global fuel prices to protect airlines and consumers, IndianOil said. Retail prices of petrol, diesel and domestic LPG cylinders have also been kept steady, insulating consumers from international price volatility. In a statement, IOC said there has been no rate revision in key fuels affecting the general public. ATF prices are, as per practice, revised on the 1st of every month based on input cost. While no change has been made in rates for domestic airlines, there has been an increase in prices for international carriers. IOC said that retail prices of petrol and diesel remained unchanged for consumers, who account for nearly 90 per cent of total consumption.
