CNG Prices Increased for the Fourth Time in Eleven Days in Delhi and North India; Latest Rise of ₹2/kg

As of now, the price of Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) in the National Capital Territory of Delhi has increased to ₹83.09 per kilogram. This recent adjustment reflects a cumulative rise of ₹6 per kilogram, implemented over four separate price hikes.

The increase in CNG prices in Delhi is part of a broader trend seen in recent months, where rising costs have been attributed to factors such as changes in international natural gas prices, domestic supply constraints, and increased demand for alternative fuel sources. CNG is widely used in the region, especially for public transportation and private vehicles, making these price changes significant for consumers and the economy.

This adjustment follows previous hikes implemented by suppliers in response to fluctuating fuel costs and is likely to impact the fares of auto-rickshaws and taxis, as well as the operational costs for various industries reliant on this cleaner fuel alternative. Authorities and stakeholders in the transportation sector are expected to closely monitor the situation as it unfolds.
