Jodhpur, 04 December 2025.

 

THINK Gas, a leading player in the Indian City Gas Distribution (CGD) industry, today announcedfuture expansion plans across its Geographical Area (GA) of Jodhpur, Barmer, Jaisalmer and surrounding regions, reaffirming its commitment to providing access to clean energy solutions furthering natural gas adoption in Rajasthan. The company currently operates 45 CNG stations, with plans to add 10 more stations over the next three years across key locations including Barmer, Jaisalmer, Balotra and Phalodi.

 

The company plans to connect 5,000 additional households by the end of FY25–26, backed by a focus on quick processing of customer requests, typically completed within 30–90 days depending on network availability.In the PNG segment, THINK Gas has supplied piped natural gas to households in Jodhpur city and Pachpadra village, supported by 1475 km of MDPE pipeline in Jodhpur and 82 km in Balotra.

 

Speaking on the developments, Mr.Vinod Chawada, BJJ Regional Head - Think Gassaid, “Our mission is to build a safe, reliable and future-ready natural gas ecosystem across Rajasthan. The progress we have achieved in expanding CNG and PNG access, strengthening infrastructure, and adopting advanced technology reflects our commitment to cleaner energy and customer-centric operations. We are grateful for the support from the Government of Rajasthan, PNGRB and all our local partners as we work to make natural gas a key contributor to the state’s energy transitiongoals.”

 

THINK Gas has expanded its presence across commercial and industrial clusters, supplying natural gas to establishments ranging from local tea vendors and sweet shops to five-star hotels, as well as industries in textiles, handicrafts, steel forging, and Gwar gum production. The company continues to promote CNG adoption through targeted campaigns, including ₹2,000 free fuel cards for vehicle conversions and ₹6,000–₹50,000 fuel card incentives for new Mini-LCV and LCV buyers.

 

Operational resilience remains a strategic priority, with LNG tanker-based supply currently supported by 23 LNG tankers feeding its mother stations in Salawas and Daijar. A new pipeline agreement, signed with the support of PNGRB, GoR, Petroleum Ministry and GIGL, will further streamline supply and reduce logistical dependence.

 

THINK Gas has strengthened public safety and awareness through regular patrolling, “Dial Before Digging” campaigns, geo-fence devices on excavators, newspaper and radio outreach, and door-to-door awareness drives. Advanced technology deployments, including SCADA-operated stations, remote valves, GPS-enabled CNG vehicles, automated customer meters, and India’s first smart prepaid meters for domestic PNG users, continue to improve monitoring, control and customer experience.
