Mahanagar Gas Ltd to hike price of CNG by ₹2 per kg across all retail outlets

Mahanagar Gas Ltd has increased the price of CNG by ₹2 per kg in Mumbai, following a similar price hike by Indraprastha Gas Ltd in North India. These increases are attributed to rising international LNG costs driven by geopolitical tensions in West Asia.
Why it matters
Rising fuel costs impact transportation expenses and inflation, reflecting how global geopolitical conflicts directly affect local consumer prices.
Mahanagar Gas Ltd on Monday (August 31, 2026) announced a hike in Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) price by ₹2 per kg across all their retail outlets.
CNG in Mumbai would now cost ₹88/kg. Price of Domestic PNG would also be hiked by ₹1/SCM.
Both hikes take effect from midnight of August 31, 2026.
