India Restores Commercial LPG Supplies Following West Asia Crisis Improvement
The Government of India has lifted all restrictions on commercial LPG supplies, restoring them to pre-crisis levels following improvements in the West Asia conflict and the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz. The Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas directed Oil Marketing Companies to resume commercial LPG distribution, with bulk supplies allowed up to 50% of pre-crisis consumption. Consumers with access to Piped Natural Gas (PNG) are encouraged to continue or transition to PNG as a long-term solution. Data on commercial and industrial consumers will continue to be maintained in unified databases across OMCs.
