As commercial LPG cylinder prices soar, the hospitality industry faces intensified financial strain. The Hotel and Restaurant Association of Western India (HRAWI) is considering menu price hikes to cope with a nearly 20% increase in operational costs.
The ongoing conflict in West Asia has exacerbated these issues, with frequent closures and altered business operations compounding financial difficulties for hotels and restaurants.
According to HRAWI spokesperson Pradeep Shetty, establishments might find themselves compelled to adjust prices to address mounting costs and safeguard their economic sustainability.
