₹/kg, ₹/SCM and ₹/litre can't be compared directly. Converting each to cost per kWh of usable energy is the only fair comparison - national averages here, see any city's own page for its real local prices.
PNG (₹4.67/kWh) works out cheaper than LPG (₹4.97/kWh) here, about 6% less per unit of energy, on top of PNG's convenience and safety advantages.
Energy content used: LPG 13.8 kWh/kg, CNG 13.1 kWh/kg, PNG 10.6 kWh/SCM, Auto LPG 6.9 kWh/litre, petrol 9.7 kWh/litre (reference only). National averages shown - a specific city can differ meaningfully from these.
CNG, or Compressed Natural Gas, is sold by the kilogram, priced by whichever city gas distribution (CGD) company holds the license for your area. There's no single national rate: each CGD company sets its own price based on local network costs and state taxes, so it varies city by city.
There's no single national price. Each city gas distribution (CGD) company - IGL in Delhi NCR, MNGL around Pune, and 300+ others licensed city-by-city - sets its own retail price based on its network costs, gas procurement, and transport. Natural gas also sits outside GST, so each state's VAT applies on top and varies the final price further, the same way petrol and diesel differ state to state.
LPG cylinder prices are revised once a month, on the 1st, by the state-owned oil marketing companies. CNG and PNG have no fixed schedule - each CGD operator revises its own price whenever its costs (gas procurement, network expenses) or the state's VAT rate change, which can mean weeks or months between revisions. This page checks for updates daily and only ever shows a "last revised" date it has actually observed, never a predicted one for CNG/PNG.
CNG prices are tracked for 511 cities on this page. 251 of them have an independently observed price; the rest share an identical rate with a nearby city in the same distribution zone (each still has its own page, just consolidated for search indexing - see the note on this page for details).
