India bars LPG refills for PNG consumers
Change
An amended supply order bars consumers with piped natural gas (PNG) connections from retaining, obtaining, or refilling domestic LPG cylinders.
Why it matters
The amended supply order prohibits consumers with piped natural gas (PNG) connections from retaining, obtaining, or refilling domestic LPG cylinders. The amendment also bars government oil marketing companies from providing LPG connections or refills to consumers who already have PNG connections. India meets about 90% of its LPG needs through imports, and shipments in the referenced week fell to an estimated 270,000 tons. Refiners have been ordered to maximize output, domestic LPG production was increased by 28%, and retail prices for 14.2 kg cylinders were raised by 7% to Rs 913.
Implications
- • Households with PNG connections cannot obtain new domestic LPG connections or refills.
- • Government oil marketing companies are prohibited from supplying LPG cylinders or refills to customers holding PNG.
