去年，一個專家小組建議將天然氣價格從4.2美元/百萬英熱單位上調(diào)至約8美元/百萬英熱單位。印度前政府已經(jīng)接受了該提議，并批準從4月1日起開始執(zhí)行。但是在印度上月結(jié)束的國家大選前，印度選舉監(jiān)管機構(gòu)要求推遲天然氣價格上調(diào)時間，因為擔心天然氣價格上調(diào)可能會影響到選舉的正常進行。
印度天然氣勘探企業(yè)曾寄希望于新政府將實施延期已久的價格上調(diào)計劃。

DJ India Defers Decision On Raising Gas Prices By 3 Months
By Saurabh Chaturvedi and Prasanta Sahu
NEW DELHI--India's federal cabinet Wednesday deferred a decision to raise state-mandated prices of natural gas by three months, a move that is likely to disappoint explorers who have been demanding an increase to help boost production.
This is the second time that the price increase has been deferred.
Last year, an expert panel had recommended raising gas prices to roughly $8 per million metric British Thermal units from $4.20 mmBtu. India's previous government had accepted the recommendation and approved the increase from April 1. But it had to put-off the price increase on the direction of the country's election regulator ahead of national elections that ended last month.
