Mumbai Metropolitan Region sees higher prices for both Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) and domestic piped natural gas (D-PNG). Multiple outlets report that CNG is increased by ₹2 per kilogram, taking the new CNG rate to ₹86 per kg. The price of piped cooking gas is also raised: The Hindu and other reports indicate a hike of ₹0.5 per standard cubic metre for domestic piped natural gas, while Times of India reports the piped gas rate increasing by 50 paise per unit to ₹52 per unit. The price revisions are linked to higher costs associated with global energy supply chain disruptions and increased procurement expenses, according to Times of India. The changes affect consumers who use CNG as a vehicle fuel and those who rely on piped gas supply for cooking. The reports do not describe any change in policy beyond the stated rate adjustments, and they focus on the Mumbai region specifically.
