New LPG cylinder rules apply! LPG cylinders won’t be available without Aadhaar, so complete your e-KYC process from home in minutes.

 

The government has now made Aadhaar e-KYC mandatory for all LPG users. Without e-KYC, cylinder bookings or subsidies may be blocked. Learn what LPG Aadhaar e-KYC is and how to complete it online.

LPG Aadhaar eKYC Rule: Due to the rapid increase in demand for gas cylinders, a major update has arrived for millions of LPG users across the country. The government has amended the rules related to gas connections, making Aadhaar-based e-KYC mandatory. According to the new government rule, all domestic LPG users will now be required to undergo biometric Aadhaar verification. This rule applies to all gas connections. Without e-KYC, cylinder bookings or subsidies may be affected.

People are taking advantage of the wrong subsidy

The government’s decision stems from several key reasons: ensuring gas supplies reach the right people amid a gas shortage, eliminating fake and duplicate connections, and preventing black marketing and stockpiling. It has been observed in several cases that some people are taking advantage of the subsidy by having multiple connections. Aadhaar-based e-KYC has been introduced to prevent such incidents.

LPG Aadhaar e-KYC can be done through your mobile phone.

The good news is that users no longer need to visit the gas agency to complete this process. You can complete LPG Aadhaar e-KYC using your mobile phone by following a few simple steps. Your identity is verified through face or biometric verification. If you haven’t already completed e-KYC, it’s best to do so soon to avoid any problems with your gas subsidy or other services.

What is LPG Aadhaar e-KYC?

LPG e-KYC means that gas connection users digitally verify their identity through Aadhaar. This process uses the Aadhaar number and biometric or face authentication to confirm that the gas connection is in the correct name. This process updates gas company records and allows the government to verify that the subsidy is reaching the correct user.

Step-by-step process for completing LPG Aadhaar e-KYC online

Step 1: First, download your gas company’s mobile app. Open the app and log in with your mobile number or consumer number. Now, click on the e-KYC or Aadhaar Authentication option in the app.

Step 2: Next, you’ll need to download the Aadhaar FaceRD app. Complete the face scan or biometric verification according to the on-screen instructions. Once the process is complete, your LPG e-KYC will be successfully updated. According to the government, this entire process is free, easy, and can be completed in just a few minutes.

What will be required for e-KYC?

When performing LPG e-KYC, you should have some important information ready: Aadhaar card, LPG consumer number, gas agency name, mobile number, bank account details (for subsidy). Correct information will speed up the process.
