Andhra hotels to raise menu prices by 10% over LPG price hike

Andhra Pradesh Star Hotels Association said restaurants and hotels in the region will raise menu prices by 10%. This hike is triggered by the recent surge of ₹993 (on average) in the prices of commercial LPG (19 kg) driven by war in the Middle East. "Hotel owners are incurring heavy losses due to increased input costs," the association's head said.
