11-kg LPG price slashed by P105

/ 01:59 AM April 01, 2012

Petron Corp., the country’s biggest oil refiner and retailer, has slashed the price of cooking gas by P8.50 per kilogram, excluding value-added tax, effective Sunday.

This means that the price of an 11-kg cylinder of liquefied petroleum (LPG) has gone down by P105.

According to Petron, the hefty price rollback was due to the drop in the international contract price of LPG for April.
