After Delhi, CNG and PNG gas prices increased in Mumbai too, MGL made these changes

After Delhi, the price of CNG has increased by Rs 1.50 per kg in Mumbai too and the price of piped cooking gas (PNG) has been increased by one rupee. Mahanagar Gas Limited (MGL), which supplies CNG for vehicles and piped natural gas (PNG) to homes in Mumbai and surrounding cities, has said that the increased prices will be applicable from midnight of July 8 and 9.

The company said in a statement, 'To meet the increasing volumes of CNG and domestic piped natural gas (PNG) segments and due to reduction in domestic gas allocation, MGL is sourcing natural gas (imported LNG) at additional market price, due to which the cost of gas is higher.'

According to the company, to partially compensate for the increase in gas cost, the delivery price of CNG has been increased by Rs 1.50 per kg and the price of domestic PNG has been increased by Rs 1 per standard cubic meter (SCM). With this, the revised delivery price of CNG including all taxes in Mumbai and its surrounding areas will be Rs 75 per kg and the price of domestic PNG will be Rs 48 per SCM.
