Gujarat ensures adequate LPG and PNG supply, shifting users to PNG by March 18, with kerosene for rural areas and prioritized commercial distribution.

Gujarat confirmed on March 16, 2026, that domestic LPG and piped natural gas (PNG) supplies are sufficient across the state, with LPG buffer stocks rising. The government is prioritizing a shift from LPG to PNG, requiring dual-connection users to surrender LPG by March 18. Rural areas receive kerosene as an alternative, with 1,452 kiloliters allocated—5 liters per family and 25 per institution. Commercial LPG distribution follows sectoral priorities: hospitals and schools get 100% and key industries 70%, while fisheries and semi-essential sectors like restaurants receive 10%. Revenue and police teams are monitoring distribution, conducting 912 district and 17 state-level inspections in 12 days.
