LPG e-KYC Deadline: What Happens If You Miss It?

Many people in India cook with gas that comes in big cylinders called LPG.

The government wants to make sure the right people get these cylinders at a cheaper, domestic price.

So everyone must prove who they are using a special identity check called e-KYC.

The last day to finish this check is August 16, 2026.

If you do not finish it in time, you will not lose your gas connection forever.

But you might have to pay a higher price for gas, like businesses do.

A home cylinder costs about ₹942 in Delhi, while a bigger commercial cylinder costs over ₹2,700.

If you already did the check before, you do not need to do it again.

You can finish the check at home using an app, at the gas shop, or with the delivery person.

So it is a good idea to finish the check before the deadline!
