India Restores Commercial LPG Supplies to Pre-Crisis Levels, Eases Bulk Restrictions
The Government of India has lifted all restrictions on commercial LPG supplies, restoring non-domestic packed LPG to pre-crisis levels following an easing of the West Asia conflict and improved LPG availability. Bulk LPG supplies have been partially relaxed to 50% of pre-crisis consumption. The Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas continues to encourage eligible consumers to transition to Piped Natural Gas (PNG) as a long-term solution. Data collection on commercial and industrial LPG consumers will be maintained to support supply management, while ensuring domestic LPG availability remains unaffected.
