Govt Dismisses CBG Price Hike Concerns

The Petroleum Ministry rejected concerns that the revised CBG price under the GOBARdhan Scheme would significantly burden CNG and PNG consumers. Though procurement costs rose 43%, govt support of ₹10 per kg will lower the effective increase to around 28%. The ministry said CBG costs will also be distributed across a domestic gas base 2.5-3 times larger.
