Hi,

Seems this scheme is back , and this time aadhaar is not mandatory.

But, what is the scheme ?

Someone please give an example or something of how this will be done.


thanks a bunch
 
You would have to pay the full price of cylinder at the time of refill(near about ~1.1k), later govt. would send the subsidized amount to your bank a/c.

..later govt will start reducing your subsidy amount until the subsidy becomes zero and you will continue paying in full.
simple scheme!
 
Later Govt. will refund the subsidy amout at it's on whims. Funny times it is going to be...

If they wanted to give subsidy, why to make it complicated on purpose ?
 
Has the policy changed? I thought that you would get x cylinders for the subsidized amount and once you've exhausted the quota you'll get the cylinders at market rate.

P.S. Anyone using PNG?

Very simple, gas agencies can not sell cylinders to black market / commercial establishments. A lot of customers complain that they don't get cylinders even after 2 months of booking, what happens is the agency sells that to black market and then re-book another one cylinder. This problem is somewhat tamed by allowing only 12 subsidized cylinders in a year but still a lot of customers fo not need/book even 7/8 per year. In the new system, the agency won't have any profit selling cylinders to black market as they have to pay full price to get them and the subsidy will be deposited directly to customer's account.
