Adani Gas Ltd has signed a definitive agreement for acquisition of 3 Geographical Areas namely Ludhiana, Jalandhar and Kutch (East).
All 3 GAs have high volumes potential in terms of demand of over 6.5 MMSCMD over a period of 10 years. These GA’s are under Phase 1 of Bharat Mala Pariyojana by NHAI which will further boost the development and volume growth, the company said in its press release.
Ludhiana and Jalandhar are twin cities of Punjab and are major Industrial and Commercial hubs with very high-volume potential of CNG and PNG homes. Both cities are in the vicinity of the pipeline connectivity.
Kutch (East) in Gujarat is poised to take centre stage for the Industrial Development in Gujarat. AGL has strong presence in Gujarat. Kutch (East) is well connected with pipeline and R-LNG terminal infrastructures making Kutch (East) an attractive destination for the development of CGD network.

With the addition of these 3 GAs, AGL shall now have a presence in 22 GAs as a standalone entity and additional 19 Gas with JV partner with IOCL aggregating its tally to 41 Gas (74 Districts) ensuring AGL’s continued leadership in CGD Business in India.

With the strong parentage of AGL, the residents of Ludhiana, Jalandhar and Kutch (East) shall also be beneficiary of best in class CGD networks, operations, maintenance, digital and customer centric approach with continued focus on Health & Safety, community development and better returns to the stakeholders,” Suresh P Manglani added.
