City gas distribution company supplying CNG and piped natural gas across Delhi and the National Capital Region.
Sells CNG (compressed natural gas) at filling stations plus piped gas to homes and businesses, buying gas partly from a government-set allocation of cheaper domestic supply; when that falls short, it buys costlier market-priced gas, which squeezes margins. GAIL and BPCL, two state-owned energy firms, are its promoters.
Moat: wide (regulatory licence, installed base). Exclusive city gas distribution authorization for Delhi NCR with an entrenched CNG station network.
