Government cuts gas price by over 12%
The government on Monday cut domestic natural gas price for the first time in two-and-a-half years but rates for gas produced from difficult fields such as Reliance Industries
New Delhi: The government on Monday cut domestic natural gas price for the first time in two-and-a-half years but rates for gas produced from difficult fields such as Reliance Industries' under-development fields in KG-D6 block are still at almost the same level as the one fixed during the Congress-led UPA regime.
The price of most of the natural gas produced by state-owned ONGC and Oil India Ltd, which account for bulk of India's existing gas output, was cut to $3.23 per million British thermal unit for the six-month period beginning October 1, from $3.69 as of now, according to the oil ministry's Petroleum Planning and Analysis Cell (PPAC).
This is the first reduction in rate since April 1, 2017. Simultaneously, the government cut the price of gas produced from difficult fields to $8.43 from $9.32, the PPAC notification said.
