However, about 2,200 of Chopra's industrial and commercial customers are facing a government-mandated 20% supply cut, as gas is diverted to households and vehicles.
In a supply squeeze, the government tends to protect priority sectors - especially fertiliser plants and households connected to piped gas. That means the first casualties are usually industry and power generators.
When LNG prices spike or cargoes tighten, factories often switch fuels - to fuel oil, LPG or even coal. Gas-fired power plants simply cut generation.
