LPG, CNG, PNG rates on May 17: Check latest prices in Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, KolkataOn Friday, energy companies hiked CNG prices by ₹2 per kg in Delhi and Mumbai amid the rise in global crude prices caused by the ongoing US-Israel-Iran conflict. 

As the West Asia conflict continues to rage, fuel prices remain a key concern for households and transport users across India, with LPG, CNG and PNG rates being revised at regular intervals amid global energy supply woes.

This is because India meets more than 40 per cent of its crude imports and 90 per cent of its LPG imports from West Asian countries, including Saudi Arabia and Qatar.
