City gas distribution (CGD) companies are looking to expand their retailing business through mobile refuelling units (MRUs), as oil marketing companies are not relenting on lowering commissions for letting distribution companies use their premises for selling compressed natural gas (CNG). Distribution companies are also increasing their own CNG presence.
Mumbai-based Mahanagar Gas Ltd (MGL) and Delhi’s Indraprastha Gas Ltd (IGL), among others, areindra piloting MRUs and have invited expressions of interest for setting up more units.
“We have installed an MRU at Ajivali along the old Mumbai-Pune-Mumbai-Goa highway. The infrastructure has been put in place.
