New Delhi, June 16 (PTI) Indraprastha Gas Ltd (IGL) today hiked Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) prices here by over 25 per cent, following the government's move to more than double the price of natural gas.
CNG rates in Delhi will go up by Rs 5.60 per kg - from Rs 21.90 to Rs 27.50 per kg, IGL said in a statement here.
"The new consumer price of Rs 27.50 per kg in Delhi and Rs 30.60 per kg in Noida, Greater Noida and Ghaziabad would be effective from midight tonight," it said.
The hike was necessitated because of the government's decision to raise natural gas prices from Rs 3.2 per cubic meter to Rs 7.5 per cubic meter (USD 4.2 per million British thermal unit).
IGL, however, did not increase the price of gas that it pipes to households for cooking purpose.
