LPG cylinders will not be subsidized this month as well, closed since May following Corona

- This month will be the same as before

New Delhi on Thursday, October 1, 2020

Even in the current month of October, there will be no subsidy for cooking gas (LPG) cylinders. Corona has not been subsidized on gas cylinders since May this year. Similarly, gas prices will not change this month.

The price of a gas cylinder is usually changed on the first day of every month. This is done with the intention of getting the price subsidy to the consumers. But there will be no such change in the current month, meaning that cooking gas will be available this month at the same price as in previous months.

The Ministry of Petroleum clarified that no subsidy was given due to the fall in the price of LPG cylinders in May.

No subsidy was credited to any user's bank account from May to September. LPG cylinders are sold at market price in our country. But the government subsidizes every user for the purpose of giving some relief to the users.

The government used to deposit the subsidy amount in the user's bank account after the user paid the full amount to the man who brought the cylinder. The government provided a subsidy of 12 LPG cylinders per family per year. He wants to buy more than twelve cylinders at market price. Due to Corona, no subsidy has been given since May and no subsidy will be given this month.
