Piped Gas PNG Connection After Return
IGL/MGL/Adani Gas registration, society NOC, safety inspection, and PNG vs LPG costs.
The 60-second version
Piped gas (PNG) needs address proof, society NOC, and safety inspection. I register with IGL/MGL/Adani Gas or local licensee and keep LPG as backup.
Society NOC is the gating document
City gas companies (IGL, MGL, Adani Total Gas, GAIL Gas) require registered rent agreement or sale deed plus society NOC for PNG meter install.
Security deposit ₹5k–10k typical; connection timeline 7–21 days after safety inspection.
I keep one LPG cylinder as backup during PNG outage — regulator supplies both in most metros.
