Chikkaballapur and Yadgir in Karnataka are among the 15 geographical areas (GAs) across India that the Hyderabad-based Megha Engineering and Infrastructures (MEIL) has bagged to implement city gas distribution.
The Petroleum and Natural Gas Regulatory Board (PNGRB) had called for bidding of projects for 65 GAs across India, and MEIL has bagged a quarter of them.
The infrastructure firm is already implementing the city gas distribution projects in Tumakuru and Belagavi in Karnataka.
Successful bidders who have won the projects will construct city gas stations or mother stations, lay the main pipeline and distribution pipelines, in addition to installing CNG stations.
