LPG e-KYC: What Consumers Need to Know

Consumers should also check whether their LPG connection has completed the required Aadhaar-based authentication or e-KYC.

The ₹300 LPG subsidy is specifically linked to eligible beneficiaries under the Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana (PMUY). The government has approved a targeted subsidy of ₹300 per 14.2-kg cylinder for eligible PMUY consumers, subject to the applicable annual refill limit.

Consumers should verify any deadline or subsidy-related notice through their LPG distributor or the official app/service of their oil marketing company before relying on messages circulating online.

How to Complete e-KYC From Your Mobile

Eligible LPG customers can use the digital KYC facilities provided by their respective oil marketing companies. For IndianOil customers, the IndianOil ONE app can be used for LPG-related services, while Aadhaar-based face authentication may require the AadhaarFaceRD application.

After opening the relevant LPG app, customers can check their profile and look for the KYC or re-KYC option. The process may require face authentication and Aadhaar-based biometric verification.

Customers using Bharat Petroleum or Hindustan Petroleum can similarly use their respective official LPG platforms for available e-KYC services.

What If Online e-KYC Does Not Work?

If you face difficulties completing e-KYC online, you can contact your LPG distributor or gas agency.

Consumers may be asked to visit the agency with the required documents and complete biometric authentication there. This can be particularly useful for customers who face problems with mobile-based authentication.

Check Your LPG Pipe for Safety

Apart from checking e-KYC, consumers should also pay attention to the condition of the LPG hose in the kitchen.

An old, cracked or damaged LPG pipe can increase the risk of gas leakage and accidents. If the pipe is damaged or needs replacement, consumers should contact their authorised LPG distributor or gas agency rather than attempting an unsafe replacement themselves.

Check Your LPG Connection Before Booking

Consumers should verify their LPG connection details, applicable subsidy status and KYC requirements before booking their next refill. It is also advisable to rely on official LPG company channels or the authorised distributor for information about deadlines and subsidy eligibility.

For eligible Ujjwala beneficiaries, the government’s targeted LPG subsidy remains an important support measure, with ₹300 per eligible 14.2-kg refill approved for FY 2025-26.
