Centre Eases LPG Supply Curbs for Industries as Situation Improves
The government restored non-domestic packed LPG supplies and eased bulk allocations by 50% as improved production and imports reduced pressure on the market.
- The Central Government announced a major relaxation of supply restrictions on Non-Domestic Packed Liquefied Petroleum Gas across India, restoring commercial availability to pre-disruption levels following the West Asia crisis.
- Emergency measures previously implemented under the Essential Commodities Act diverted C3-C4 hydrocarbon streams exclusively to LPG production, causing feedstock shortages for petrochemical industries during global supply chain disruptions.
- Commercial and industrial consumers will now receive bulk LPG supplies amounting to 50 per cent of pre-crisis levels, while indigenous LPG production remains maintained at not less than 40 thousand metric tonnes per day.
- The Centre for High Technology under the Ministry will manage organisation-wise allocations of additional C3-C4 streams, ensuring balanced distribution for petrochemical companies and priority sectors.
- Expanded Piped Natural Gas connectivity remains a priority as The Secretary requested cooperation from Chief Secretaries of all States and Union Territories to implement revised supply arrangements.
