Domestic PNG becomes cheaper in Delhi, NCR from Jan 1

Indraprastha Gas Ltd (IGL), the country’s largest city gas retailer, has ushered in the New Year with some relief for households in Delhi and the National Capital Region (NCR).

From January 1, domestic consumers using piped natural gas (PNG) for cooking will pay less, after the company announced a reduction of Rs 0.70 per standard cubic metre (scm) in retail prices, reported IANS.

The decision, announced by IGL in a post on X, comes close on the heels of a major policy change by the Petroleum and Natural Gas Regulatory Board (PNGRB), which has restructured pipeline tariffs to make the transportation of natural gas cheaper and more uniform across the country.
