New Delhi: GAIL Gas Limited on Thursday said that it has reduced the cost of domestic Piped Natural Gas (PNG) and Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) by Rs 1 per SCM and Rs 1 per kg respectively, across all its authorised areas in the country.
"The price cut comes into effect from today in GAIL Gas Geographical Areas (GAs) in Uttar Pradesh, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh, Haryana, Uttarakhand, Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh, Rajasthan and Odisha," the company said in an official statement.
Speaking on the decision, GAIL Gas Chief Executive Officer said, “the Ministry of Petroleum & Natural Gas and the Petroleum and Natural Gas Regulatory Board (PNGRB) continue to implement progressive policy measures that are fostering a favourable and financially sustainable ecosystem for the growth of the CNG and domestic PNG market in India.
“The recent revision of the Unified Tariff by PNGRB, from January 1, 2026, including the applicability of Zone-1 tariff to City Gas Distribution (CGD) entities for CNG and domestic PNG segments, is set to significantly reduce the transportation cost of natural gas.”
He said the decision of GAIL Gas to reduce prices is in line with the Government of India’s vision of a gas-based economy and to further encourage the adoption of clean fuels.
GAIL Gas Limited is a wholly owned subsidiary of Maharatna PSU GAIL (India) Limited and is implementing City Gas Distribution networks in 16 GAs.
