Press Release Number:

Description:
In view of the above, the Department urges all consumers not to panic or indulge in unnecessary hoarding of domestic LPG, which may create artificial scarcity in the market.
The Department also cautions all distributors, retailers and individuals that black marketing, over-pricing or unauthorized sale of domestic LPG cylinders is illegal and punishable under relevant provisions of law. Strict action will be taken against any person or entity found involved in such activities.
The public is also informed that booking of domestic LPG cylinders is done through the authorized digital booking system of the Oil Marketing Companies and delivery is carried out through the Delivery Authentication Code (DAC) system to ensure transparency and proper authentication at the time of delivery. Consumers are advised that refill booking is permitted only after a gap of 25 (twenty-five) days from the last delivery, as per the norms of the Oil Marketing Companies. These measures are in place to prevent hoarding and ensure fair and equitable distribution to all consumers.
The Government of Meghalaya seeks the cooperation of all citizens to maintain orderly distribution and responsible use of LPG so that equitable supply is ensured to all consumers across the State
