1. Opening Hook
Just when everyone thought city gas was a boring utility story, Gujarat Gas decided to drop a plot twist. While equity markets were busy debating interest rates, crude prices, and who blinked first at Davos, GGL quietly pushed CNG volumes to an all-time high. Industrial PNG, meanwhile, chose the exact opposite mood—declining politely, without drama, but with consequences.
Management sounded confident, balance sheet flexed its zero-debt muscles, and the merger timetable marched on like a government file that finally got all signatures. Growth is visible, execution looks steady, and the future seems… structured.

Read on—this concall starts calm, gets confident, and then quietly raises the stakes.

- CNG volumes at record 3.45 mmscmd: Petrol prices blinked, CNG laughed.
- Industrial PNG fell: Tiles, chemicals, and demand cycles still need therapy.
