Adani Total Gas asks industrial users to limit consumption to 40%; Warns of higher spot prices
Mumbai: City gas distributor Adani Total Gas (ATGL) has asked its commercial and industrial users to restrict natural gas consumption to 40% of their contracted volumes, warning that any usage beyond this limit will be charged at significantly higher spot market rates, industry sources said.
The move comes as gas companies seek to manage tight supplies following the impact of the war in the West Asia. Adani Total Gas did not respond to an emailed query sent until press time.
"If industrial users limit their gas offtake to 40% of their contracted quantity, they will continue to pay the contracted price. But any consumption beyond this level will be billed at spot LNG (liquefied natural gas) prices, which are significantly higher," one industry executive said.
Current contracted rates are about ₹40 per standard cubic metre, while spot LNG prices are around ₹120 per standard cubic metre, the person added.
This means companies exceeding the permitted threshold could face a sharp rise in costs for additional gas purchases.
ATGL's customer base comprises 70% domestic users (10.5 lakh households) and 30% industrial users (9,750 customers) as of December 2025. Sources said supply to households will continue at existing prices as these are largely sourced from domestic gas.
