The price revision comes amidst rising prices of the natural gas at source both internationally as well as for domestically drilled gas. Rising prices have forced suppliers and distributors to cut down on industrial supplies since the past many weeks.

“Overall, there is a shortage of CNG gas as there is no supply from Russia and Ukraine, thus impacting the CNG rates. Whatever Opaque gas is there is being purchased by Unites States of America and Australia, which is also causing shortage in India. Hopefully, in the future rates of petrol, diesel and CNG will come down,” said Ali Daruwala, spokesperson, All India Petrol Dealers’ Association (AIPDA).
