Mumbai, July 21 -- Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited (HPCL) has launched HP Navya, a new 10 kilogram (kg) composite liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) cylinder, in partnership with Instamart as part of a pilot in Bengaluru. The initiative aims to enable customers to order cylinders online for doorstep delivery through quick commerce while leveraging HPCL's existing LPG distribution network and reducing purchase friction for urban consumers.
The HP Navya cylinder is lightweight and corrosion free, with a translucent body that allows users to monitor the remaining LPG level and reduces the need for manual checks. Its compact design is intended for apartments, small families, students and working professionals and as a secondary household cylinder, supporting ease of handling and storage.
HPCL said its director of marketing Amit Garg indicated the company remains focused on delivering innovative energy solutions that emphasise safety, reliability and convenience and that integrating HP Navya with Instamart would improve accessibility to LPG through a digital platform. Instamart chief executive Amitesh Jha noted the platform has expanded beyond grocery deliveries to meet a wider range of household needs and that the collaboration would extend convenience to LPG delivery while maintaining safety and reliability.
The launch is presented as part of efforts to modernise LPG distribution by combining clean energy solutions with digital convenience, offering consumers a faster and more accessible way to obtain cooking fuel and manage household energy needs. The service will be available initially in Bengaluru with plans to expand to other cities in phases and will be monitored to guide any broader rollout. Observers said the pilot will inform any practical adjustments to last mile delivery operations. User feedback will shape service design.
