Gandhinagar: In a significant relief to the ceramic industry, the Gujarat government has announced a reduction in natural gas prices for ceramic units located in Morbi and Thangadh–Surendranagar.

As per the decision, Gujarat Gas Limited has reduced the price of natural gas supplied to ceramic units operating under the Minimum Guarantee Offtake (MGO) agreement by Rs. 4.50 per cubic meter. The revised rates will be applicable to ceramic industries in Morbi as well as Thangadh–Surendranagar.

The price cut will come into effect from January 1, 2026, providing immediate financial relief to ceramic manufacturers who have been facing cost pressures due to high energy prices. Gujarat Gas Limited has already communicated the revised rates to the concerned ceramic units in both regions.

Industry representatives have welcomed the move, stating that the reduction in gas prices will help improve competitiveness, ease production costs, and support the overall growth of the ceramic sector, which plays a crucial role in Gujarat’s industrial economy. DeshGujarat
