Transferring a Gas Connection

Transferring of a gas connection from one company to another creates healthy competition between the gas companies and it ensures that the companies provide their customers with the best quality and service.

In the earlier days, the companies used the system known as de-linking, in which the customer was supposed to approach the distributor of the current gas company and submit the request for transfer manually. The customer would then be required to approach the gas distributor company that he/she is switching to and submit the transfer request. However, sometimes these distributors refused to accept the requests and cause nuances for the customers.

Bharat gas, Indane Gas as well as HP Gas allow you to transfer a gas connection among them without requiring you to cancel the existing connection.
