Now you can get LPG gas cylinder without address proof, here's how

If you are also planning to take an LPG connection, there is some good news for you. Now you can get a cylinder even without address proof. Earlier, address proof was mandatory to get the first cylinder. State-owned oil company Indian Oil Corporation (IOCL), has decided to give relief to the common people by doing away with the requirement of an address proof on new LPG connection.

It is worth noting that earlier, without address proof, you could not buy an LPG cylinder. This rule has been changed now. Now customers can easily buy a 5 kg LPG cylinder by visiting the Indane Gas Distributor or Point of Sale near their city or their area. No documents will be required for this. There, you will get the cylinder just by paying the price of the cylinder. A 5 kg cylinder of Indane can be refilled from the selling point of Indane. Let It may be noted that these cylinders are BIS certified.

If you have opted for any other option instead of a gas cylinder or you are leaving the city, you can return this cylinder at the selling point of Indane. If returned in 5 years, 50% of the cost of the cylinder will be refunded while Rs 100 will be refunded on returning it after 5 years.

Apart from this, you can also book gas for a refill from the comfort of your home. For this, Indane has issued a special number 8454955555. You can book a small cylinder by making a missed call on this number from any corner of the country.
