# Onion, oil, LPG push home thali costs up 9% in July: Crisil 2026-08-07T16:56:22+00:00 | Business & Economy | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet A home-cooked vegetarian thali cost 4% more in July than a year ago, while a non-vegetarian thali became 9% pricier, according to Crisil's Roti Rice Report. Onion prices rose 20% year-on-year as higher-priced stored rabi stocks hit the market, worsened by unseasonal rainfall and hailstorms in Maharashtra. Vegetable oil and LPG cylinder prices increased 11% and 10% respectively, driven by supply disruptions and higher energy costs linked to the West Asia conflict. For non-veg thalis, broiler chicken prices climbed 14%. However, the overall rise was partly offset by a 12% drop in potato prices and a 2% decline in tomato prices. On a month-on-month basis, the veg thali cost rose 2% while the non-veg thali remained stable. Crisil expects onion prices to stay firm due to tight rabi supplies and a delay in kharif arrivals, while potato prices may inch up as cold-storage stock is released. ## Coverage - livemint.com - timesofindia.indiatimes.com Tags: Crisil, edible oil, inflation, LPG, onion prices, thali cost Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/home-cooked-thali-costs-up-9-in-july-on-onion-lpg/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
