LPG Refill Booking Wait Cut to 25 Days Nationwide
People in rural areas can reportedly order their next cooking-gas cylinder after waiting 25 days.
Earlier, they had to wait 45 days.
Urban and rural customers will now have the same waiting rule.
The countdown starts when the last cylinder was delivered.
It does not mean people must order a cylinder every 25 days.
Families that use more gas may find the new rule more helpful.
Extra cooking during festivals or family events can use gas quickly.
Customers should check their LPG provider’s app, website or customer-care service before booking.
The minimum interval between domestic LPG refill bookings has reportedly been reduced from 45 days to 25 days for rural customers.
The 25-day period applies to both rural and urban customers using standard 14.2-kilogram cylinders.
The interval is calculated from the previous cylinder’s delivery date, not its booking date.
The reported change covers customers of Indane, Bharat Gas and HP Gas.
The shorter wait may help larger households and Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana beneficiaries avoid running out of cooking gas.
