What is a protected gas consumer?

A domestic connection that used less than 0.9 hm³ (90 m³) in each of the previous four months. It is billed at much lower slab rates and a Rs 600 fixed charge. One month above 0.9 hm³ moves you to non-protected for the next four.

Why did my gas bill double in winter?

Heaters and geysers push consumption into higher slabs, and because the whole month's gas is billed at that slab's rate, the per-unit price jumps too, and the fixed charge rises above 1.5 hm³.

How do I convert m³ to MMBTU?

Multiply by the GCV factor on your bill (about 0.0355). 100 m³ ≈ 3.55 MMBTU.

Is this the same for SNGPL and SSGC?

Yes: OGRA notifies one domestic tariff for both; only the calorific factor differs slightly by region.

How this is calculated

OGRA sets domestic gas prices per MMBTU in consumption slabs of hm³ (100 m³) per month. Your meter reads m³; the bill converts to MMBTU with the gas calorific value (about 0.0355 MMBTU per m³) and charges the whole consumption at the slab it falls in, so one extra unit at a boundary can raise the rate on every unit (a "previous-slab protection" rule limits the jump).

Protected consumers (under 0.9 hm³ in each of the last four months) pay Rs 200–350/MMBTU with a Rs 600 fixed charge. Non-protected consumers pay Rs 500–4,200/MMBTU with a fixed charge of Rs 1,500 (≤ 1.5 hm³) or Rs 3,000. Meter rent is Rs 40 and GST 18% applies to the total. These prices took effect 1 July 2025 and were left unchanged in the July 2026 review.
