As the US-Israel-Iran war sends LPG prices through the roof, restaurants are trimming menus and households are scrambling for alternatives. Here are the five best induction and infrared cooktops to buy right now.
The ongoing conflict between the US, Israel, and Iran has sent shockwaves through global energy markets, with India feeling the heat most acutely in its LPG supply chain. In Mumbai, restaurants are being forced to shrink their menus to cut costs, and in some cases, shut down altogether. For households, the monthly cylinder has quietly become a luxury.
The timing has also emboldened appliance brands - induction cooktop prices have crept upward as demand spikes, with several models now selling closer to their MRP than they have in years. That said, there are still strong options available under - or close to - Rs. 5,000. Here are the five worth considering. Prices are indicative and subject to change. Always check platform listings for the latest pricing.
