Last month, the Central Government had compulsorily implemented the LPG (Regulation of Supply and Distribution) Amendment Order 2026. According to this rule, whoever has a PNG connection, their Indane, HP and Bharat Gas connection will be closed within 30 days.
If the customer himself switches off his LPG connection, he will be issued a coupon. So that in future he will get LPG connection if needed.
Indane, HP and Bharat Gas customers are running out of 3 months
In March, the government had said that the places where there is infrastructure related to PNG. All LPG customers there will have to take PNG connection within 3 months. If they do not do so, then their LPG connection will be closed.

e-KYC becomes necessary (LPG e-KYC updates)
The government has made e-KYC mandatory for all LPG connection holders. All LPG connection holders have to complete their e-KYC process before 30 June 2026. If they do not do this then in this situation their connection may be closed. Due to which you will have to face problems at the time of booking. Let us tell you, it is not mandatory for those who have completed the e-KYC process.
Will there be a decline in booking days (LPG booking periods)
