LPG Refill Booking Interval Revised to 25 Days for All Domestic Consumers The inter-refill booking interval for domestic LPG consumers has been revised, fixing it uniformly at 25 days across both urban and rural areas, with immediate effect. Background: In March 2026, amid the outbreak of conflict in the Middle East, a temporary demand-management measure was prescribed — an inter-refill booking gap of 25 days for urban consumers and 45 days for rural consumers. What has changed: In view of the improved LPG supply position and a considerable reduction in refill backlogs, the arrangement has now been revised. 📍 Urban LPG consumers: 25-day booking gap 📍 Rural LPG consumers: 25-day booking gap (revised from 45 days) Despite significant volatility in international LPG prices and supply conditions during the crisis, India maintained uninterrupted availability of clean cooking fuel for its citizens. At the same time, domestic LPG prices remained among the lowest in the world, despite elevated international LPG prices. Oil Marketing Companies — IOCL, BPCL and HPCL — have been advised to implement the revised interval uniformly across urban and rural areas with immediate effect. The revision brings greater consistency to the LPG refill booking process for domestic consumers nationwide. #LPGRefill25Day #LPG #MoPNG #PIB #PIBindia @HardeepSPuri @TheSureshGopi @neerajmittalias @IndianOilcl @BPCLimited @HPCL @PIB_India
