Government Lifts Restrictions on LPG Supply: The central government has lifted all restrictions on the supply of LPG. The government has lifted sectoral restrictions on the supply of non-domestic packaged LPG. Supply has now returned to the same level as before the crisis that arose after the Iran-US war.
Following the government's lifting of restrictions, bulk LPG supplies, which were halted at the beginning of the crisis, have now been resumed. It has been reopened to 50% of pre-crisis consumption. This government decision will provide significant relief to commercial and industrial consumers.
What order did the government issue earlier?
To boost domestic production during the crisis, the government issued an order under the Essential Commodities Act. The order stated that C3-C4 streams would be used exclusively for LPG production. These streams were diverted from petrochemical and other applications to LPG.
Domestic LPG production has improved.
Now that domestic LPG production has improved and imported LPG cargoes are on the way, the government has decided to reduce the use of C3-C4 streams in the LPG pool. These streams will now be allocated more to petrochemicals and other essential sectors.
What impact will the decision have on the general public?
The government has made this decision specifically for the commercial and industrial LPG and petrochemical sectors. It will not adversely affect the supply or prices of domestic gas cylinders used by the general public.
