What to watch

  • Next monthly commercial LPG revision (1st of month) for reversal risk
  • Crude oil and INR/USD movement driving benchmark resets
  • Same-store margin commentary from listed QSR chains next earnings
  • Whether OMCs extend cuts to domestic LPG or further commercial reductions
  • Competitor menu-price or combo-deal announcements signaling pass-through
  • QSR/hospitality operators lock in near-term unit-economics gains and hold menu pricing to rebuild margins

  • Investor relations to flag potential gross-margin tailwind in upcoming quarterly commentary
