In a move that underscores Indraprastha Gas Limited’s ongoing talent reshuffle, Ashish Dadel has joined IGL on deputation from promoter company GAIL as Head (C&P and Stores), effective July 9, 2026. He steps into the role in place of Adesh Singhal, who has been repatriated to GAIL. The transition signals IGL’s continued emphasis on strengthening its procurement and stores function through leadership with deep exposure to the broader gas and energy landscape.
Ashish Dadel brings a 30-year track record in the oil and gas sector, with a mechanical engineering degree from the Regional Institute of Technology, Jamshedpur. His long tenure at GAIL positions him to infuse IGL’s commercial and procurement operations with expansive industry insights, potentially impacting how IGL sources materials, manages contracts, and maintains its supply chain efficiency amid evolving market dynamics.
The leadership switch also marks a notable alignment between IGL and its promoter, GAIL, as senior talent from the promoter group takes on pivotal roles within the company. While Adesh Singhal departs back to GAIL, IGL’s consolidation of executive talent through deputation highlights a collaborative approach to governance and operations, a dynamic that could shape execution across IGL’s core business functions in the months ahead.
