Share

Indraprastha Gas Limited (IGL) has increased CNG prices across its network by Rs 1/kg from 6am on Sunday. This marks the second increase in 2 days and pushes Delhi’s CNG price past the Rs 80/kg mark for the first time, while rates at IGL stations in Haryana, Uttar Pradesh and Rajasthan have also gone up.

With the latest revision, CNG in Delhi now costs Rs 80.09/kg, up from Rs 79.09/kg after the earlier nationwide Rs 2/kg hike announced on May 15.

  1. Delhi CNG prices cross Rs 80/kg for the first time
  2. IGL cites rising input costs and stronger US dollar

Revised CNG prices across IGL stations

Following the latest revision, CNG prices now stand at Rs 88.70/kg in Noida, Greater Noida and Ghaziabad, while Gurugram’s revised rate is Rs 85.12/kg.

In a statement, IGL said “The retail selling price of CNG has been increased by Rs 1/kg wef 6 am on 17.05.2026 in all GAs (Geographical areas) of IGL. The revision in retail prices of CNG has been effected only to marginally offset the impact of increase in input gas cost along with steep appreciation of USD. Even after revision, CNG would still offer upto 45 percent savings towards the running cost when compared to vehicles running on alternate fuel at the current level of prices.”

Delhi Rs 80.09/kg
Noida / Greater Noida Rs 88.70/kg
Ghaziabad Rs 88.70/kg
Gurugram Rs 85.12/kg
Meerut Rs 88.58/kg
Karnal Rs 84.43/kg
Rewari Rs 84.70/kg
Kaithal Rs 85.43/kg
Hapur Rs 89.70/kg
Ajmer Rs 89.44/kg

Fuel prices revised earlier this week

The CNG price revision follows a broader fuel price increase announced earlier this week, when petrol and diesel prices were raised by around Rs 3/litre after a four-year pause. Petrol in Delhi currently costs Rs 97.77/litre, while diesel is priced at Rs 90.67/litre.

The fuel price hikes come amid continued volatility in global energy markets following tensions in West Asia and disruptions around the Strait of Hormuz, one of the world’s key oil and gas shipping routes.
