Additionally, the LPG Control Order issued on March 9, 2026, successfully increased domestic daily output by 40 percent to 50 TMT. The Ministry also highlighted the delivery of 50 lakh cylinders daily in March without dry-outs and a significant expansion of Liquefied petroleum gas infrastructure over the past decade.
