The recent reduction in prices of domestic gas is likely to improve profitability of the country's city gas distribution companies, analysts believe.

"If prices (of CNG/PNG) are not revised then profitability will only improve because lately it has been impacted owing to reducing proportion of the APM (Administered Pricing Mechanism) gas," said Prashant Vasisht, senior vice-president and co-group head, Icra.

The government reduced the prices of APM gas for the first time in two years following a decline in the benchmark rates after it introduced a new gas pricing formula for such gas in 2023.

As per the official notification, the price of natural gas from legacy fields allocated to state-owned Oil and Natural Gas Corp has been reduced to $6.41 per million British thermal units (mmBtu) from $6.75 earlier.
