India’s government has issued a major new order under the Essential Commodities Act that could change how millions of households get their cooking gas. If piped natural gas (PNG) infrastructure is available in your area, you now have just 90 days to switch from LPG cylinders to a PNG connection. Refusal or inaction means your LPG supply gets cut off. This move comes as the West Asia conflict disrupts the Strait of Hormuz, threatening nearly 90% of India’s LPG import route. The government is prioritising PNG expansion to free up limited LPG stocks for households without pipeline access. Housing societies that block pipeline installation could also see LPG supplies stopped for all residents. Here’s everything you need to know about the new PNG order and how it affects your kitchen.
