Last Updated : Dec. 31, 2024, 12:50 p.m.

In India, it is essential for everyone to link their Aadhaar number with their LPG connections, especially if you wish to receive the government's LPG subsidy. Before you link your Aadhaar card to your gas account, make sure it's already linked to your bank account. This step is crucial as it allows the subsidy to be directly transferred to your account once your Aadhaar is connected to your gas consumer number or LPG connection.

Link Aadhaar with LPG Gas Connection

For a gas Aadhaar link, you need to complete and submit two forms to your LPG provider. Form 1 is used to connect your bank account with your Aadhaar for LPG subsidy purposes, and Form 2 is specifically for linking your LPG connection with your Aadhaar. You can either download these forms from the internet or pick them up at your local LPG distributor's office.

Link Aadhaar to LPG Connection Online

Linking your Aadhaar with your LPG connection isn't fully online, but you can start the process by downloading the necessary forms. Here's how to do it:

Step 2: Look for the 'LPG services' section and click on ‘Join DBTL using Aadhaar’ or ‘Download Forms’.

Link Aadhaar to LPG connection via IVRS

Another option for linking your Aadhaar card to LPG is the Interactive Voice Response System (IVRS). Every LPG company installed the system for the convenience of their customers.

Indane Gas Customers: For the Indane gas Aadhaar link online, customers can visit the official Indane website and locate their District Number before dialling through IVRS mode, then follow the operators' instructions.

Bharat Gas Customers: For Bharat Gas Aadhaar card link online, customers must go to the official Bharat Gas website and make a call through IVRS.

HP Gas Customers: Similarly, for HP Gas Aadhaar link online, HP Gas customers must visit the official Hindustan Petroleum Gas website. Customers can then make an IVRS call and follow the operator's instructions to complete the process.

Via SMS: To link your Aadhaar with your LPG connection using a text message, first ensure your mobile number is registered with your LPG distributor. Then, send an SMS from that registered number to use the services.

Subsidy Amount on LPG

Here are some pointers to help you check the credited subsidy amount in your bank account along with the process:

• When the customer registers for the subsidy, an advance deposit is made into his or her bank account. This is a one-time, permanent deposit for a one-year subscription to LPG cylinders. After this, no deposits are made for the year.
• Customers have a limit on how many cylinders they can get annually, and they must pay the market price when they order a cylinder.
• If the customer decides to discontinue the scheme or the LPG cylinder connection, the dues will be adjusted accordingly.

Conclusion

Linking your Aadhaar card to your LPG connection is key to getting government-subsidized LPG in India. You can do this in several ways—online by downloading and submitting forms, offline by dropping by your LPG distributor, through a call center, by mail, or using the Interactive Voice Response System (IVRS). Each method is designed to make the process easy and ensure that everyone can link their Aadhaar to their LPG connection without hassle, so you can start enjoying the benefits of subsidized cooking gas.
