With fresh revision in the prices of compressed natural gas (CNG), clean fuel has gone dearer by `2 per kg in Delhi and `2.25 per kg in NCR. CNG will now cost `41.90 per kg in Delhi and `47.35 per kg in Noida, Greater Noida and Ghaziabad from June 25. The fresh fuel hike will affect CNG propelled vehicles, like school buses, private car owners as well as the DTC buses.
Apart from this, the prices of piped natural gas (PNG) have also been hiked.
The new consumer price of PNG for Delhi households has been increased from `23.50 per scm to `24.50 per scm, up to consumption of 30 scm in two months with effect from June 25. Beyond consumption of 30 scm in two months, the applicable rate in Delhi would be `40.50 per scm.
Due to differential tax structure in Uttar Pradesh, the applicable price of domestic PNG to households in Noida, Greater Noida and Ghaziabad would be `26 per scm up to consumption of 30 scm in two months, which has been increased from existing `25 per scm.
Beyond consumption of 30 scm in two months, the rate applicable in these cities would be `43 per scm.
