New Sui Gas Connection — How It Works

New domestic gas connections are issued by SNGPL and SSGC under OGRA rules. Here is the real process, in order, without the agent myths.

The process, step by step

  1. Application: apply at your company's office or official website (SNGPL for Punjab/KPK/AJK/Islamabad; SSGC for Sindh/Balochistan) with your CNIC and property documents (registry/fard or allotment letter; tenants add the owner's NOC and rent agreement).
  2. Survey: the company surveys your premises for a nearby gas main and technical feasibility, and registers your application in the queue.
  3. Demand notice: if approved, you receive a demand notice for the security deposit and service line charges — pay it at the designated bank within the given time.
  4. House line & meter: after payment, the company lays the service line and installs the meter. Your internal house piping is done by a licensed fitter at your own cost and must pass inspection.
  5. Gas on: once inspection clears, supply starts and your first bill follows in the next cycle. Your consumer/customer number is printed on that first bill — the same number you will use to check bills online here.
Reality check: new domestic connections in many areas face long queues and periodic government restrictions on new connections. Anyone promising a connection "in a few days" for extra cash is not following a real channel — applications and payments only ever go through the company and its designated bank.

Typical documents

Fees and security deposits change with OGRA/company notifications — confirm the current demand notice amount from the company's own letter rather than any website, including this one.
