The story so far: In the first signs of easing pressure on liquified petroleum gas (LPG) with the probable culmination of the West Asia conflict, the Union Petroleum Ministry Thursday (June 25, 2026) restored commercial LPG supply to the pre-crisis level and removed all sector-specific restrictions on its supply.
The government said the directives would offer relief to commercial and industrial users of the bottled hydrocarbon gas.
At the peak of the West Asia crisis in early March, the government had restricted the supply of commercial LPG in a bid to maintain supplies for domestic use.
These restrictions were gradually eased over time across multiple tranches.
Until Thursday (June 25, 2026), industrial and commercial LPG allocation was allowed up to 70% of the pre-crisis levels.
