LPG e-KYC: Will your gas connection be cut if you do not get e-KYC done?

LPG e-KYC Update: This news is extremely important for millions of LPG gas cylinder users. The deadline for completing Aadhaar-based e-KYC for domestic gas connections was August 23rd. Now that deadline has passed. Those who haven't yet completed their e-KYC are deeply worried. The biggest question on their minds now is whether their gas connection will be disconncted and they won't receive their next cylinder.

Will your gas connection be cut?
The passing of the e-KYC deadline doesn't mean your gas connection will be cut off on August 24th. There's no word from oil companies that all connections without KYC will be immediately shut down. However, there may be problems with gas bookings or subsidies on connections without KYC in the future. So, if you haven't done this yet, try to complete it anyway.

What was the deadline?
The LPG e-KYC deadline was originally set for August 16, 2026. However, due to server downtime and numerous other technical issues, it had to be extended. Following increased footfall at gas agencies, the KYC deadline was extended to August 23. Now, the August 23 deadline has also passed.

What will happen if you don't complete your e-KYC?
If you haven't completed your e-KYC, the biggest impact could be on gas bookings and subsidies. According to media reports, bookings and subsidies for customers without e-KYC could be stopped. This means that gas connections won't be terminated immediately, but service may be disrupted.

Can you still complete e-KYC?
If you haven't already done your e-KYC, first check your gas company's website. Indane customers can use IndianOil's website and related services for their LPG services. Aadhaar-based KYC is still available in many locations via mobile. Additionally, you can also visit gas distributors to learn more about it and complete your KYC.
