REGASCO hikes LPG prices to P1,600 per 11-kg cylinder

Republic Gas Corporation (REGASCO) on Monday rolled out the last installment of its upward adjustments for liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) for April, following the movement in international contract prices.

In an advisory, REGASCO said it will implement a staggered price adjustment for the month of April amounting to P16 per kilogram, with the final installment implemented on Monday, April 6, 2026.

This would translate to a P176 increase for 11-kilogram cylinders. 

With the increase, the suggested retail price for the company’s 11-kilogram cylinders in Luzon has been hiked to P1,600.

Petron Corp. and Solane earlier announced double-digit price hikes for LPG.

This comes after the LPG Markets Association (LPGMA) earlier warned that prices could hit as high as P1,500 per 11-kg tank in April due to rising shipping costs as a result of limited access to the Strait of Hormuz.

Latest data available from the Department of Energy (DOE) show that the price of an 11-kilogram cylinder ranged between P818.62 and P1,128.62 as of March 2026. —KG, GMA News
