In separate advisories, Petron and Phoenix LPG Philippines announced an increase of P3.50 per kilogram in LPG prices effective on Tuesday. Their respective AutoLPG prices rose by P1.96 per liter and P1.95 per liter. “These reflect the international contract price of LPG for the month of November,” Petron said. For its part, Solane jacked up its LPG price by P3.55 per kg effective on Wednesday.
