In an effort to encourage more households to switch to cleaner cooking fuel, several city gas distribution companies have introduced a special promotional offer for new customers. Under the scheme, consumers applying for a new Piped Natural Gas (PNG) connection can receive free gas worth up to Rs 500 after installation.
The initiative aims to promote the use of PNG, which is considered a safer, more convenient, and environmentally friendly alternative to LPG cylinders. By offering free gas credit, companies hope to attract more households to adopt piped natural gas for their daily cooking needs.
What Is the Offer?
According to the details of the offer, customers who apply for a new PNG connection during the promotional period will receive Rs 500 worth of free gas credited to their account after the connection is installed and activated. The free gas amount will be adjusted in the consumer’s gas bill.
Who Is Eligible?
The offer is generally available for new residential customers who apply for a PNG connection for the first time. Existing PNG users may not be eligible for the promotional benefit. Applicants must complete the registration process and submit the required documents for verification.
How to Apply for a PNG Connection
Consumers can apply for a new PNG connection through both online and offline methods:
