Around 100,000 LPG cylinders are being supplied daily in Assam, according to a Press Information Bureau release. Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) including IndianOil, Bharat Petroleum, and Hindustan Petroleum are prioritizing household LPG supply, ensuring a stable and adequate flow despite global energy market fluctuations. Currently, approximately 80% of LPG refill bookings are made digitally, enhancing delivery efficiency. To combat black marketing and hoarding, over 700 inspections of LPG distributors have been conducted by Indian Oil in coordination with the Assam Government, leading to actions against around 18 distributors. Across India, about 2.8 million LPG cylinders are delivered daily, with extensive monitoring efforts resulting in over 68,000 raids and the seizure of more than 48,000 cylinders. Consumers in Assam are reassured of adequate LPG supply and are encouraged to utilize digital booking while avoiding panic buying.
