LPG connection portability

The facility of online transfer of LPG connection to another distributor serving in the same area has been provided to LPG customers through respective OMCs web-portals as well as their Mobile Apps. The facility is free of cost and there is no fee or transfer charges payable for this facility.

Customers using their registered login can choose a distributor of their OMC from the list of distributors serving in their area and opt for the porting of their LPG connection.
