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.

LPG Cylinder without subsidy should be sell in open market like petrol/diesel. A simple example : I know many people who have no registration in any Gas Agency and they are using LPG since last 10-15 years. Every month they are buying LPG Cylinder in Black (Approx. Rs.800-900/-). They can't buy the same from market. If Gas Cylinder without subsidy (with cost approx. 650/-) will be available in open market the full amount to be go to the Petroleum Co. & Taxes to Govt.

Encourage,incentivise middle class and rich consumers,building co-ops,etc, to buy in bulk at different seasonal rates.International prices go down in summer months of June to Sept.Customers can buy in bulk in these months and govt. can save on subsidy.

Link Aadhaar with PAN and get income information of the individual. Take a average of last 2-3 years annual income as a cut off slab for subsidy eligibility. Also you can get Aadhaar to map family and take a combined income of the family for subsidy eligibility, as many people are smart to take connections in the name of a non earning member of the family.

Make Aadhaar mandatory for getting subsidy. This is the only way to control misuse of subsidy provided by the govt. You can set a timeline to the people to apply for Aadhaar No and have this deadline reviewed. But the message should go clear that the future of Subsidy is with Aadhaar only. Parallel to this govt can focus on identifying the duplicates using finger print matching softwares and remove the duplicates if any.
