IGL Raises CNG Price by Rs 3.89 per Kg in Delhi-NCR Amid Global LNG Price Rise
Indraprastha Gas Limited (IGL) has increased the price of compressed natural gas (CNG) by Rs 3.89 per kg in Delhi and adjoining cities, effective from 6 am on August 29. The revised price in Delhi is Rs 86.98 per kg, reflecting a rise in global liquefied natural gas (LNG) prices linked to the ongoing West Asia crisis. This is the fifth CNG price hike in Delhi-NCR this year. The increase is expected to impact freight and passenger fares in the region.
