PNGRB advances stakeholder consultation on gas pipeline tariff amendment rules — New discussion on gas tariffs

Regulatory discussions over tariff determination in India’s gas transportation framework are intensifying, as the Petroleum and Natural Gas Regulatory Board has initiated the next stage following comments received on the 2026 draft amendment regulations. A hybrid open house will be held on 17 November 2026 to consider responses from 14 entities, with potential implications for consumers and the costs borne by buyers dependent on isolated supply routes.

Highlights

PNGRB has called an open house on 17.11.2026 to discuss comments from 14 institutions on the proposed NGPL Tariff Amendment Regulations 2026, issued on 08.10.2026.
Key stakeholders, including Adani Total Gas Limited and the Association of CGD Entities, raised concerns about including unconnected pipelines in the unified tariff framework and the resulting increase in consumer costs.
The comments primarily called for greater transparency, clarity on interconnection, and a thorough assessment of potential cost increases for consumers in isolated locations.

Next steps in the tariff amendment consultation

As stated in the public notice issued by the Petroleum and Natural Gas Regulatory Board, stakeholders were invited to share their views and comments on the draft PNGRB NGPL Tariff Amendment Regulations 2026, issued on 08.10.2026. Comments were received from 14 entities, and details are available in Appendix-A.

To discuss these comments, PNGRB is holding a hybrid open house on 17.11.2026 at 15:00. Participants wishing to join virtually can request the meeting link, while the regulator has encouraged stakeholders to take part in the further discussion.

Concerns over consumer costs and the unified tariff

Among the comments received, several parties, including Adani Total Gas Limited (ATGL) and the Association of CGD Entities (ACE), raised concerns about the unified tariff framework, the inclusion of non-interconnected pipelines in the unified tariff arrangement, and the impact on consumers. ATGL says that economic integration should not be a substitute for the physical integration of the national gas grid, while ACE has also indicated that including unconnected pipelines could place an unintended additional tariff burden on consumers without providing equivalent supply benefits.

Other responses called for clarity on tariff application, interconnection obligations, and whether prospective tariffs should be determined solely on the basis of demonstrated physical connectivity. Transparency, assessment of consumer impact, and the potential effect on costs for consumers dependent on isolated supply routes are among the key issues in this consultation.
