City gas distributors have been periodically raising prices since October 2021 when domestic as well as international gas prices started to climb as economies worldover recovered from the COVID-19 pandemic-induced slowdown. The rates have gone up after the government more than doubled the price of natural gas to USD 6.1 per million British thermal unit from April 1. Natural gas when compressed becomes CNG for use as fuel in automobiles. The same gas is also piped to household kitchens and industries for cooking and other purposes.
