Winston Score History

The full picture

Indraprastha Gas Limited (IGL) is a utility company that delivers natural gas through pipelines directly to homes, vehicles, and businesses in and around Delhi, India. Its main products are compressed natural gas (CNG) for cars, buses, and auto-rickshaws, and piped natural gas (PNG) for household cooking and industrial use. IGL holds an exclusive license to distribute gas in its operating areas, making it the dominant supplier in the Delhi National Capital Region.

IGL earns money by buying natural gas from suppliers and selling it at a markup to end customers — essentially a volume-based distribution business. It operates primarily in Delhi, Noida, Greater Noida, and Gurugram, and with a market cap above ₹215 billion it is one of India's larger city gas distribution companies. Its government-backed geographic exclusivity gives it a strong moat, but the key risk is regulatory pricing pressure, since Indian authorities periodically set caps on the prices IGL can charge for CNG and PNG.
