Mahanagar Gas on Monday announced a hike in CNG prices by Rs 2 per kg and domestic piped natural gas (PNG) by Rs 1 per standard cubic meter (SCM) citing a rise in input costs due to the Middle East tensions. The new price of Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) will be Rs 88 per kg in and around Mumbai, effective from midnight on September 1, an official statement said. "In view of the ongoing crisis in the Middle East, which has resulted in a significant increase in input gas prices linked to international indices, MGL has announced a revision in the prices of CNG," the statement said. There is "significant demand" for CNG and a major portion of input gas for the CNG segment is being met through imported spot RLNG (Regasified Liquefied Natural Gas) where the prices are higher, it said. Price hike in CNG will only partially offset the rising cost of input gas and ensure continued and sustained supply of CNG to customers, MGL said.

With CNG prices increased in Delhi, city-based transport bodies on Saturday demanded an immediate hike in autorickshaw fares and threatened to go on a strike on September 9 if their demand was not fulfilled. The price of CNG in Delhi and adjoining cities increased by Rs 3.89 per kg from Saturday, according to Indraprastha Gas Ltd. It said a significant portion of input gas for CNG was being met through imported LNG, whose rates in the spot or current market had seen a surge since the beginning of the West Asia conflict. Auto Rickshaw Association and Delhi Pradesh Taxi Union General Secretary Rajendra Soni said, "The Delhi government should increase auto and taxi fares with immediate effect within one week, as CNG prices were increased by Rs 3.89 this morning, which has suddenly increased the financial burden on poor drivers." CNG prices have been rising over the past two to three months, with a cumulative increase of approximately Rs 10-11, he said in a statement. "The government
CNG price in Delhi and adjoining cities will rise by Rs 3.89 per kg from Saturday, Indraprastha Gas Ltd said on Friday. In a statement, IGL said a significant portion of input gas for CNG is being met through imported LNG, whose rates in the spot or current market have seen a surge since the beginning of the West Asia conflict. "With international LNG prices remaining elevated and the cost impact becoming increasingly significant, a calibrated revision of Rs 3.89 per kg has now become necessary to partially offset the increase in input gas cost," IGL said, adding that the revision in CNG prices is being effected from 6 am on Saturday.

Adani Total Gas Ltd (ATGL) has not raised prices of CNG and piped cooking gas supplied to households, even as it has imposed supply curbs on some large industrial consumers amid the escalating West Asia crisis affecting gas supplies, officials said on Friday. A company official said about 70 per cent of ATGL's gas volumes are sourced domestically and supplied to CNG users and domestic kitchens (called piped natural gas (PNG)-domestic) customers. Prices for these segments of vehicle owners and residential households remain unchanged. ATGL, the city gas joint venture of the Adani Group and French energy major TotalEnergies, sources the remaining around 30 per cent of gas volumes through imported LNG. This is supplied to commercial and industrial users. As the escalating war halted movement of ships through Strait of Hormuz - the narrow sealane through which India gets a bulk of its crude oil and LNG supplies - the imported fuel segment has seen disruption. Due to supply chain ...
Torrent Gas on Friday announced a reduction of up to Rs 3.50 per kg in the retail price of CNG and up to Rs 2 per standard cubic metre in domestic PNG in its areas of operation connected to the National Gas Grid across the country. "This will make CNG cheaper by up to 43 per cent vis-a-vis petrol," the company said in a statement. This reduction in prices of CNG and PNG comes on the back of the implementation of the Unified Tariff order by PNGRB, effective from January 1, 2026. "This reduction in CNG and PNG prices will bring great relief to households using it as cooking fuel and to CNG vehicle owners by reducing household expenses for the common man. This bold step, along with the nationwide PNGRB Campaign for promoting the usage of Natural Gas, is also expected to give an impetus to the offtake of new PNG connections amongst households and encourage the sale of new CNG vehicles, including passenger and commercial segments," it said.
