The state-run Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) are facing significant under-recoveries on the sale of domestic liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) cylinders and aviation turbine fuel (ATF), due to rising international energy prices, a senior government official said on Monday.

Speaking during the Inter-ministerial briefing on the West Asia development, Sujata Sharma, Joint Secretary, Ministry of Petroleum & Natural Gas said the OMCs were currently incurring an under-recovery of approximately Rs 650 per domestic LPG cylinder. The losses have widened as global LPG prices have increased, while domestic retail prices have remained relatively stable.

THE TRIBUNE, India’s oldest, daily English-language newspaper, was first published on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan), and save for 40 days in the immediate aftermath of Partition, has come out every day over the last 145 years. THE TRIBUNE was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist of the time. The newspaper is run by a five-member Trust, which is chaired by Shri N N Vohra, former Governor of J&K State (2008-2018); as well as Justice S S Sodhi, former Chief Justice of the Allahabad High Court; Shri Gurbachan Jagat, former Governor of Manipur; Lt Gen. Shamsher Singh Mehta, former Western Army Commander; Shri Paramjit Singh Patwalia, Senior Advocate in the Supreme Court.

THE TRIBUNE is free, objective, and independent. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language, are the hallmarks of the paper.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
