LPG Marketers Warn of Supply Crisis, Price Hikes Amid Plant Sealing

The Pakistan LPG Marketers Association (PLPGMA) has called on the federal government to halt the sealing of licensed LPG plants, warning of potential supply disruptions and price hikes. The association states that recent regulatory raids are penalizing legal operators while an outdated pricing framework, with unrevised margins since 2018, remains unaddressed. PLPGMA seeks urgent margin revisions, separate pricing for imported LPG, and immediate talks to avert a nationwide supply crisis. Such a crisis could exacerbate inflation in Pakistan, potentially influencing the USD/PKR exchange rate and broader economic stability.
