Kulingana na Times of India, Indian gas company Gujarat Gas Ltd (“Gesi ya GGL”) has increased the price of industrial gas. This will make the country’s largest ceramic industry cluster Gujarat Morbi gas cost an additional expenditure of more than 1 billion rupees.
GGL Gas announced on August 24 that it would increase the price of industrial gas by approximately Rs 5 kwa kila mita ya ujazo ya kawaida (Rs 4.37 including taxes) for companies producing sanitary ware and tiles in the Morbi and Surendranagar regions. Its final price will be Rs 37.51 kwa kila mita ya ujazo ya kawaida. The new prices are effective from the same day. Bei ya gesi kwa matumizi ya makazi bado haijabadilika.
The increase in industrial gas prices is mainly due to the significant increase in LNG prices on the international market. Hivi karibuni, there has been a significant increase in global gas prices. Prices in the Chinese market also exceeded 5,400 Yuan kwa sauti, a price increase of more than 100 percent over the same period last year, while prices in the U.S. market also hit the highest level in nearly 10 miaka.
Kulingana na data iliyotolewa na Jumuiya ya Ujenzi na Usafi wa Kauri ya China, kama ya 2020, the natural gas usage rate of building ceramic enterprises increased from less than 15% kwa kuhusu 55%. Hata hivyo, na kilele cha kaboni kilichopendekezwa, uwiano wa gesi ya viwanda hautaongezeka baada ya 2025, and the proportion decreases after 2030. Natural gas is a transitional energy source for carbon neutrality, and electricity will be the “main energy source” of the future. Electric firing kiln will be the new direction of energy technology development in the building and sanitary ceramics industry. Inaeleweka kuwa, kwa sasa, Guangdong, Fujian, Shandong, Sichuan, Liaoning na maeneo mengine ya uzalishaji, biashara nyingi zimekamilisha mabadiliko ya nishati safi.
And India is also mandatory in 2019 to complete the process of switching from coal gasification furnaces to natural gas production. It is reported that GGL Gas is now supplying 6.5 million cubic meters of natural gas for the Indian ceramics industry daily, and the price increase will add an additional monthly expenditure of Rs. 1 bilioni. The sudden increase in gas prices will have an impact on the existing orders of Indian ceramics companies.
Nilesh Jetpariya, mwenyekiti wa Jumuiya ya Keramik ya Morbi, said the increase will increase production costs by 7 kwa 8 asilimia, and could even lead to the shutdown of nearly 30 percent of factories in Morbi. Katika kanda, mafuta akaunti kwa karibu 35 kwa 40 asilimia ya gharama zote za uzalishaji. The sudden price hike may prevent many manufacturers from adjusting their production plans in time, or they will be forced to clear their inventories at a loss.
Zaidi ya hayo, uhaba wa makontena na gharama kubwa za usafirishaji zinabana viwanda vya vigae huko Morbi. Last few months sea freight costs rose two to three times, local exporters can not get containers, tile exports fell 20% kwa 40%.
Akaunti ya mauzo ya nje ya 30 asilimia ya uzalishaji wa vigae vya Morbi. KG Kundariya, chairman of Moresby-based Wintel Ceramics Private Limited, said exports are down 20 asilimia. Originally when the Indian market was slowing down due to pandemic demand, exports could have brought incremental volumes. However poor logistics caused the export market to take a hit as well. Kwa kuongeza bei ili kupitisha ongezeko la gharama za uzalishaji, end retail will also be affected.
Ili kuhakikisha kuwa hakuna ugavi wa ziada kwenye soko na kwamba bidhaa zilizopo zinauzwa kwa viwango vya bei vinavyokubalika, viwanda vya kutengeneza vigae vinafikiria kuzima tanuu ili kujibu. Hadi sasa, 115 tile factories have reportedly shut down production, na mwingine 250 will stop production for a month from September 1.
