Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) prices have been increased by Rs 3.89 per kg in Delhi-NCR. The revised rates have become effective from 6 am on Saturday. This increase has been announced by Indraprastha Gas Limited (IGL), the leading city gas distributor in the National Capital Region. After the recent hike, CNG price in Delhi has increased from Rs 83.09 per kg to Rs 86.98 per kg. The revised rates will also be applicable in several neighboring cities including Noida, Greater Noida, Ghaziabad and Gurugram.

Now the price of CNG in Noida and Ghaziabad will be Rs 95.59 per kg, while in Gurugram the new price has been fixed at Rs 92.01 per kg. This latest increase is expected to put additional pressure on motorists and commercial vehicle operators who rely heavily on CNG. Auto-rickshaws, taxis, app-based cab services and other commercial transport operators may have to spend more on fuel after this amendment. Private car owners using CNG will also have to spend more on fuel.

This latest increase comes after a continuous rise in CNG prices in recent months. In May 2026, IGL had announced another increase of Rs 2 per kg in Delhi. The revision was made just days after the Rs 1 per kg increase came into effect from May 26, as CNG prices continued to rise. Public sector gas distribution company IGL said international liquefied natural gas (LNG) prices remain "significantly higher" and the impact of rising costs is being rapidly felt.

The company said the increase in CNG prices by Rs 3.89 per kg was necessary to partially offset the increase in input gas cost and ensure continuous and reliable supply of CNG to consumers. Frequent price hikes have raised concerns among transport operators, especially in metropolitan areas where CNG-powered vehicles form an important part of the public and commercial transport network.(Input-IANS)
