New Delhi, Sept. 1 -- Several changes related to LPG and PNG have come into effect from Tuesday. These include a change in price, e-KYC requirements, details about booking intervals and the shift to piped natural gas (PNG). The biggest change of all is a hike in prices of commercial LPG cylinders for the first time in three months. These changes arrive amid the government's PNG incentive scheme.

LPG consumers who failed to complete their Aadhaar-based e-KYC by the 31 August deadline are likely to face difficulties with their services, including a potential ban or cut in subsidies. On the other hand, oil marketing companies have retained rules around cylinder booking intervals, refilling and switching from LPG to PNG.
