Jaipur, October 7 (Udaipur Kiran): Piped Natural Gas (PNG) and Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) prices in Jaipur will increase from midnight on Tuesday. Torrent has revised the rates of both PNG supplied through pipelines and CNG sold at petrol pumps.
According to the new rate list issued by the company, the price of PNG has been increased from ₹47.91 to ₹49.77 per Standard Cubic Metre (SCM). After adding taxes, consumers will now pay ₹53.50 per SCM, compared with the earlier price of ₹51.50.
