Amid rising petrol and diesel prices, the recent hike in compressed natural gas (PNG) and piped natural gas (PNG) is set to pinch the common man.

With this, the prices of CNG in Delhi and adjoining areas have been hiked by another 70 paise per kg, while the prices of PNG have been hiked by 91 paise per SCM (Standard Cubic Meter).

In a tweet IGL said, “With effect from 6 am on 2nd March 2021, revised CNG price in NCT of Delhi is Rs.43.40/- per kg; while revised PNG price is Rs.28.41/- per SCM (including VAT)”.

The revised prices will be effective from March 2 in Delhi, Noida, Greater Noida, Ghaziabad, Kanpur, Fatehpur, Hamirpur, Muzzafarnagar, Shamli, Karnal, Kaithal and Rewari, IGL said.
