How can you get a gas cylinder now that the LPG e-KYC deadline has passed?

A ban on new LPG gas connections remains in effect. Meanwhile, the government recently announced that the e-KYC process is being carried out to eliminate fraudulent connections, as some individuals have been obtaining connections in others' names to conduct business illicitly. Such connections are being cancelled through the KYC process; only after this is completed will the government and companies be able to formulate a new strategy regarding new connections. The government had recently extended the deadline for LPG e-KYC from August 31 to September 7.

The e-KYC deadline of September 7 has now passed. This means that if you have not yet completed the e-KYC for your gas connection, you may face difficulties in obtaining a cylinder. The question arises: will you no longer be able to get a cylinder?
