The Delhi government has raised the price of compressed natural gas by ₹3.89 per kilogram, affecting commuters and fleet operators across the capital.
The Delhi administration announced a hike in the price of compressed natural gas (CNG) effective immediately. The new tariff is ₹3.89 higher per kilogram than the previous rate, a change that will be reflected in the next billing cycle for all CNG users in the city.
Commuters who rely on CNG‑powered autos, taxis and private vehicles are expected to feel the impact on their daily travel expenses. Fleet operators have also been urged to adjust their operating costs accordingly.
The price revision comes as part of the regular review of fuel tariffs by the Delhi government, which periodically adjusts rates to align with market conditions and operational costs.
Authorities have advised consumers to check the updated rates on official portals and to plan their budgets in light of the new pricing structure.
The increase underscores the ongoing volatility in energy markets and its direct effect on urban transport costs in the national capital.
