The city gas distributors have been periodically raising prices since October last year when domestic as well as international gas prices started to climb.
Earlier in April, prices of CNG in the national capital were hiked by Rs 2.50 per kg and that of piped cooking gas by Rs 4.25 per unit to record levels on the back of the surge in raw material cost.
