Government's move to provide affordable LPG
In August, the Union Cabinet chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi approved LPG subsidy to oil marketing companies (OMCs), including Indian Oil, Bharat Petroleum and Hindustan Petroleum, amounting to ₹30,000 crore.
This move was taken to ensure affordable LPG amid the current geopolitical situation. It was primarily targeting the middle class households of the society who use LPG for their personal needs, Mint reported earlier.
The Cabinet's decision came just days after US President Donald Trump doubled US tariffs on India to 50%, citing New Delhi's continued purchase of discounted Russian oil.
