- The Government of India issued the Natural Gas (Supply Regulation) Order, 2026, to prioritise natural gas allocation amid global Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) supply concerns.
- Under the order, fertilizer plants are placed under ‘Priority Sector–2’, ensuring at least 70% of their average natural gas supply based on the previous six months.
- The move aims to protect domestic fertilizer production and ensure adequate supply for farmers during the Kharif sowing season.
- According to the Department of Fertilizers, India’s total fertilizer stock reached 180.12 lakh metric tonnes (LMT) as of 10 March 2026, about 36.6% higher than the previous year.
