21.50 (4.20%) Container Corporation of India (CONCOR) and Gail (India) have signed a long-term agreement to establish a state-of-the-art Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) dispensing station at CONCOR's Inland Container Depot (ICD) in Khodiyar, Ahmedabad. This strategic partnership plays a key role in transitioning India's heavy-duty commercial logistics sector toward sustainable fuel alternatives. Under the 15-year agreement, GAIL will hold exclusive operational control and invest in setting up the retail LNG outlet infrastructure. Concurrently, CONCOR will provide a dedicated land parcel of around 3,000 square meters within its high-traffic Ahmedabad terminal along with essential utility connectivity.
To ensure the commercial viability of the green corridor project, CONCOR has committed to deploying a dedicated fleet of 15 LNG-powered commercial vehicles starting in the first contract year. The multi-modal facility will operate round-the-clock, offering high-performance, eco-friendly fueling to CONCOR's logistics fleet as well as open-market commercial vehicles.
