CNG rate in Varanasi over the last 1 day
Our record for Varanasi currently holds a single day: ₹93.00 per kg on 17 Oct 2026. A range and a trend need at least two days, so this section fills in as the daily record grows.
This table is built from our own daily record rather than from a third-party feed. That means it starts on the day we began tracking Varanasi and grows by one row every night — it is a record of what was actually published, not a reconstructed series.
CNG rate across Uttar Pradesh: where Varanasi stands
Within Uttar Pradesh, CNG ranges from ₹95.59 per kg in Ghaziabad to ₹107.00 in Lucknow — a spread of ₹11.41, or 12.3 per cent. At ₹93.00, Varanasi sits at the bottom of that range.
A gap of that size is almost always tax rather than transport. Central excise duty is uniform nationwide, but state VAT and local levies are not, and that is what separates one city in Uttar Pradesh from another.
Varanasi at a glance
Varanasi has a population of roughly 17,00,000 and about 8,00,000 registered vehicles, based on our most recent estimate (as of 31 Mar 2024). These are planning estimates rather than a census count, and they are published here so you can judge what the rest of this page means in context.
A city of that size consumes fuel at a scale that a per-litre price hides completely. Multiply any pump price by the number of vehicles on the road and a one-rupee revision stops looking like a rounding error.
How much Varanasi spends on CNG in a day
Our working estimate for fuel demand in Varanasi is around 270 kl/day, again an estimate rather than a metered figure. At today's CNG price of ₹93.00 per kg, that demand represents roughly ₹2.51 crore of fuel changing hands in the city every single day.
The arithmetic behind that number is deliberately simple — litres multiplied by the price — and we spell it out so you can substitute your own figure if you have better local data. What it shows is why a small-looking revision matters so much at city scale.
