PNGRB's pipeline contracting brief: Part II – 3 Nov 2025

1) PNGRB extends and upsizes Shikrapur–Goa & Hubli LPG pipeline baseline

Length goes from 508 km to 620 km and net worth jumps to Rs 372.0 crore. Bid timelines slide to 30 Jan 2026 for submissions and 03 Feb 2026 for technical opening. The changes reshape hydraulics, CAPEX and bidder eligibility — but not the service obligation.

2) PNGRB pushes GHPL bid to 30 Dec and renames corridor Jhansi–Sitarganj

PNGRB has moved the GHPL bid deadline by 60 days and shifted the pipeline origin to Jhansi. The corridor now totals 605 km with a mandated spur to Gwalior and a higher net-worth bar. Technical opening is also reset to early January, hinting at a heavier bid-prep cycle.

3) PNGRB pushes Jalandhar–Jammu LPG pipeline bid to 30 jan with shorter 210 km route

PNGRB has moved the JJPL calendar out by 91 days and trimmed the route to ~210 km. Capacity has been reset to 300 TMT and the Goindwal spur is out. A lower net-worth bar could widen the field, but bidders must now re-cut their DFR math.

4) Regulator pushes Devangonthi–KIA ATF pipeline bid a month, bars incumbent

PNGRB has extended the Devangonthi–KIA ATF pipeline bid by 30 days to 04 Dec 2025. The regulator also ruled that the existing ATF pipeline operator to the airport cannot bid in this round. That shifts the field toward new entrants as route deviation and facility scope stay unchanged.
