A huge amount of Govt. money is spent on subsidy of petroleum products. The Govt. had to spend Rs. 1,39,869 crore on account of subsidy on petroleum products in the year 2013-14. As, the indigenous availability of crude Oil and LPG is limited, these are imported in huge quantities to fulfill the demand of the country.  As Govt. provides domestic LPG and PDS Kerosene on subsidised price, this results in huge subsidy burden on Govt. Due to presence of dual pricing(subsidized and non-subsidized) in LPG and SKO, there is a diversion of subsidized LPG and Kerosene into commercial usage. Although Govt. has taken several initiatives to reduce this diversion of subsidized LPG and PDS Kerosene, public participation is solicited to suggest ways for reducing diversion in LPG and PDS Kerosene.

You are invited to suggest ideas to reduce diversion and the subsidy burden on account of LPG and Kerosene.

Honorable Prime Minister, I wanted to share some ideas where we can increase the Give it up scheme. 1. Provide the consumer some kind honor with a letter signed ( digitally ) by the Prime minister of India in helping by giving the subsidy 2. Some preference for railway reservation (like a quota e.g 5-6 tickets ) in a year in which the consumer himself is travelling.3. Some preferential service to the consumer when he books LPG so that he gets it within 48 hours.These not have any burden excheqer

Respected Sirs First step should b to deregulate lpg prices... Say anyone with taxable income above 10 lacs should buy at market price and dbt restricted to those below that level.. Similarly for kerosene aadhar should b used to map beneficiaries and dbt should b initiated and implemented soon....th eligible beneficiaries should b required to provide the aadhar no and cadh transfer to their account... Regards srinath

Installments of biogas plant should be done in villages and even in the developing villages this will help in less consumption of LPG and the waste generated by cows will also be used and even the health of the people will also improve when the problem of garbage is solved with biogas plant.

Why not open the competition to private sector with similar rural commitment like PSUs. Rather than us deciding dealer commissions, prices- government should allow the competition to decide prices and transfer subsidies directly to people. This way a level playing field will be given to the companies which will in turn be beneficial for consumers as companies will fight for market share with innovation and better services. put out a regulator to ensure similar urban and rural commitments

Also, why do you have MULTIPLE DEALERSHIP NORMS??? In today's scenario, when LPG/Petrol/Diesel is almost fully deregulated, make the sector fully OPEN by allowing Multiple Dealership norms. Why is the Govt. deciding on the number of dealerships a person can run when the market is FREE & OPEN?? Those who can work will get rewarded and just by allotting Dealerships to incapable people who are unable to manage their dealerships, ultimately its a waste of resources & money.

First, you increase Dealer commission to viable levels so that the Dealer can also give Rs.30 to his refillmen for delivery. In such case, each refillman will earn around Rs. 500/- per day that comes to Rs. 15,000/- p.m. that is the basic minimum he needs to feed his family. And once that is done, you can then see diversion will reduce by reducing the price gap between 14 kg & 19 kg. If commission is not increased to viable levels, you cant expect to solve the problem.

Unless & until the Dealer commission is increased, DIVERSION CAN NEVER Be eliminated by anyone. In today's world, you cant expect the LPG dealer to get the delivery done at a mere commission of Rs. 44.56 due to high overhead expenses involved & delivery charges. Even if we courier a 14 gram letter within the city, it costs Rs. 20-25 And here you pay only 44.56 commission to Dealers for 14.2 kg filled LPG & 15 kg empty cylinder weight and expect them to come clean?? Wrong policy.
