The Petroleum and Natural Gas Regulatory Board has increased the unified tariff for the national gas grid system by 10% to ₹81.1 per mmbtu from July 1, up from the current ₹73.9.
The regulator had introduced a unified tariff for natural gas pipelines from April 1 to help boost gas consumption by customers in places far away from supply centres. This allows customers to pay a single tariff while pipeline operators get differentiated tariffs based on the distance. Three tariff zones were created, with the first zone lasting 300 km from the gas source, the second between 300 km and 1,200 km, and the third beyond 1,200 km.
The regulator has announced a tariff of ₹40 per mmbtu for the first zone, ₹79 for the second and ₹114.5 for the third zone.
