Deadline for LPG e-KYC approaching; complete this task before June 30—here are the key details..
LPG e-KYC: If you use Indane, Bharat Gas, or HP Gas cylinders at home, this news is important for you. Gas companies have asked their customers to complete their e-KYC by June 30, 2026. Those who have not yet completed the e-KYC process are advised to do so soon. Companies state that failure to complete e-KYC could lead to difficulties in accessing certain benefits linked to the gas subsidy. Although there has been no announcement that gas connections will be disconnected after June 30, it is still advisable to complete the e-KYC on time to avoid future issues.
Will the gas subsidy stop after June 30?
Gas companies have asked customers with pending e-KYC to complete the process before June 30. Companies aim to update their records to ensure subsidy benefits reach the intended recipients. Failure to complete e-KYC could disrupt certain subsidy-related services.
Will the gas connection be disconnected?
Many people wonder if their gas connection will be disconnected if they do not complete the e-KYC. Currently, there is no such information. The companies simply advise customers to complete the e-KYC before the deadline to prevent future problems.
Why is e-KYC necessary?
Gas companies use e-KYC to update customer information. This helps identify issues such as multiple connections registered under the same name or unused, dormant connections. It also facilitates the delivery of government assistance to the right people.
Who needs to complete e-KYC?
This process is mandatory for those who have not yet completed their e-KYC. Beneficiaries of the Ujjwala Yojana should also verify whether their Aadhaar number is linked to their gas connection. Those who have already completed the e-KYC process do not need to repeat it.
Can e-KYC be done from home? Indane customers can complete e-KYC from the comfort of their homes using the IndianOil ONE app, Bharat Gas customers via the Hello BPCL app, and HP Gas customers through the HP Pay app. A mobile number and Aadhaar are required for this process, which can be completed by following the simple steps provided in the apps.
An offline facility is also available
Those who do not wish to use the mobile apps can complete their e-KYC by visiting their nearest gas agency. The process will be carried out there using Aadhaar. The best part is that there is no charge for e-KYC; the entire process is free of cost.
