Adani Total Gas share price rose by 6 per cent in early trading on March 13, reaching an intraday high of Rs 644 on BSE. The shares continued their winning streak for the fourth consecutive day despite a weak market sentiment, surging nearly 40 per cent.
The rally in Adani Group stock came after the government issued the Natural Gas (Supply Regulation) Order, 2026, which aims to prioritise gas allocation to essential sectors amid supply disruptions caused by the ongoing conflict in the Middle East.
Amid all this rising demand for cooking gas and concerns around potential shortages due to global supply constraints amid the ongoing war between the US, Israel, and Iran in West Asia.

up Rs 5.10 or 0.84 per cent.

Gas Supply Constraint
According to the government notification, consumers using domestic pipeline natural gas and compressed natural gas used in transportation will be given priority during the supply constraint due to the war in the Middle East. Meanwhile, based on operational availability, allocation will be maintained at 100 per cent of the average consumption of the previous six months. The government's move is considered to help in ensuring essential energy supply for households and the transportation sector.
