Govt mandates daily LPG target of 63.81 KTPD to strengthen domestic supply
The government set a daily LPG production target of 63.81 KTPD for 24 oil companies to boost domestic supply. An order dated August 13 mandates that public and private refineries maintain this output. Officials said the move helps strengthen cooking-gas availability and reduces the country's vulnerability to sudden supply disruptions.
