Amid concerns over LPG availability, the Gujarat government on Friday (March 20, 2026) clarified that there is no shortage of cooking gas in the state and urged citizens not to heed rumours. Authorities said adequate stock is available and distribution systems are functioning smoothly, with doorstep delivery ensuring consumers do not need to visit gas agencies or stand in queues.
Officials stated that oil marketing companies have strengthened technology-driven booking systems, enabling consumers to order LPG cylinders through multiple digital platforms, including WhatsApp, missed calls, SMS, mobile applications, and online portals.
According to the State government, registered consumers can book refills through the following channels:
Indian Oil Corporation (IOCL): WhatsApp (7588888824), call from registered number (8454955555), SMS/IVRS (7718955555), IndianOil ONE app, and the official portal.
