GAIL stocks rise 18% after PNGRB simplifies regulations

On Wednesday, GAIL (India) share's jumped 8% to Rs 120 on BSE on the back of higher volumes in an otherwise restrained market.

The stocks have been trading at their highest levels since February 2020.

The tariffs will be applicable based on the structure of the two zones related to the distance from the gas source. The stock has risen 42% over the past month compared to a 12% increase in the S&P BSE Sensex.

Finalised city gas distribution (CGD) network regulations regarding common carriers were announced by PNGRB. The highlights of the CGD regulations include:

  • Unrestricted access in geographical areas (Carbon) where marketing exclusivity has ended.
  • Open-access capability shall be at least 20% of the CGD network capacity.
  • Compression capacity or the full quantity of gas streaming through the CGD network or compressors for a duration of one day in the past, whichever is greater.
  • Access to CNG or LCNG stations run by dealers and franchises of authorised entities will not be considered as a third-party shipper.
