Festival offer for domestic PNG services in Alappuzha, Thiruvananthapuram

With the onset of the festival season, AG&P Pratham on Tuesday announced a reduction in the price of domestic piped natural gas (PNG) by ₹5 per unit for domestic PNG consumers of Alappuzha and Thiruvananthapuram and aims at improving cooking efficiency in a safe and clean environment. Starting this September, PNG is now priced at ₹51 per unit.

By switching to PNG, customers can enjoy exclusive benefits, including substantial cost savings of 15%-25% compared to LPG cylinders. Additionally, piped gas connections ensure secure and hassle-free usage by eliminating the need for booking, storage, and handling of LPG cylinders, said AG&P Pratham in a statement here.

AG&P Pratham has laid a domestic piped natural gas (D-PNG) pipeline in Vayalar grama panchayat (15 wards) and Cherthala municipality (7 wards) by covering 160 km in Alappuzha. Expanding its network to supply PNG to households, the company will set up a pipeline network at Thannermukkam, Kanjikuzhy, Manancheri and Muhamma in the coming days, said Ajith V. Nagendran, regional head, Kerala, AG&P Pratham.

It has also laid a D-PNG pipeline at Vettucad, Shanghumughom, Chakka, Perunthani, Palkulangara, Muttathara, Sreevaraham, Sreekandeswaram and Kamaleshwaram by covering 150 km in Thiruvananthapuram. Expanding its network, the company will set up pipeline network at Puthanpally, Vallakadavu, Valiyathura, Bheemapally, Beemapally East, Manikyavilakam, Poonthura, Kadakampally, Karikkakom, Anamugham, Aakkulam, Medical College, Cheruvikkal, Kulathoor and Attipra in the capital in the upcoming days.
