The cost of compressed natural gas in Delhi-NCR has been increased by Rs 3.89 per kilogram, affecting daily commuters and fleet operators.
The Delhi government has announced a hike in the price of compressed natural gas (CNG) across the National Capital Region. Effective from the date of the notification, the tariff has been raised by Rs 3.89 per kilogram.
The increase is expected to impact a large segment of commuters who rely on CNG‑powered two‑wheelers and three‑wheelers, as well as commercial fleets that use the fuel for intra‑city transport. Transport operators have expressed concern over the added operating cost.
Authorities said the adjustment reflects the latest changes in procurement costs and market dynamics. They have urged commuters to plan their budgets accordingly and assured that the revised rates will be reflected at all authorized CNG dispensing stations in the region.
The move comes amid broader discussions on fuel pricing and its effect on urban mobility, with the government monitoring price trends closely to balance consumer affordability and supply chain sustainability.
