NATURAL GAS
India aims to increase the share of natural gas in its energy mix to 15% by 2030, up from the current 6%, but faces significant infrastructure and regulatory challenges. Experts emphasize the need for policy reforms, including the inclusion of natural gas in the goods and services tax, to enhance consumption and support energy security. Additionally, LNG imports are expected to rise as demand grows to approximately 225 Bcm to meet this target.
