Adani Total Gas Cuts Excess Natural Gas Price For Industrial Users

18 Mar 2026 CW Team

ATGL said the revision aims to pass on the benefit of lower upstream prices to customers while continuing to manage system integrity and fair allocation during the prevailing supply constraints. It reiterated that other terms announced earlier regarding excess gas provisions remain unchanged and that it has sought clarification from GAIL (India) Ltd on the application of the 80 per cent supply order for industrial customers. The firm noted that spot market rates were applied to consumption beyond prescribed thresholds.

Earlier in March ATGL had instructed commercial and industrial customers to curtail consumption to 40 per cent of their contracted volumes as a temporary measure. The company applied spot market rates to volumes consumed beyond this threshold and has not reduced the rates that govern that segment. Previously incremental volumes beyond the limit were charged at Rs 119 per SCM.

ATGL did not increase prices for compressed natural gas (CNG) used by vehicle owners or piped natural gas (PNG)-domestic supplied to households and those segments remain a priority for supply allocation. About 70 per cent of ATGL's gas volumes are sourced domestically and serve CNG and PNG-domestic customers, while the remaining roughly 30 per cent is met through imported liquefied natural gas (LNG) for commercial and industrial users. The government has reprioritised allocations to protect household and transport supplies and the company said it is making all possible efforts to ensure uninterrupted deliveries and to protect consumer interests across segments.

Adani Total Gas Ltd (ATGL) has reduced the price of excess natural gas supplied to certain industrial customers to Rs 82.95 per standard cubic metre (SCM) from Rs 119.90 per SCM, with the revision effective from 0600 hours on March 16, 2026. The cut follows a softening of upstream gas prices amid disruptions to supplies linked to the halt in ship movements through the Strait of Hormuz. The company presented the move as an effort to pass on reduced input costs while maintaining system stability and equitable distribution.
