Q:
In Kerala, as per the new norms from Oil companies, for reticulated LPG system, an apartment having 300-500 flats will be treated as one customer and be entitled to only 6 subsidized domestic cylinders. Is that applicable in other states and if so how we can protest against this?
The reticulated system may be convenient for the residents but it comes with a price. The first problem is the gas meter. It reads in cubic meters. Ideally, one cubic meter must be equivalent to 2.1 kg of LPG. But the service provider will use a conversion factor of 2.8 almost 30% more! In addition to paying a higher price for the gas consumed, you will exhaust the subsided quota much earlier because of the 30% apparent increase in weight. The service provider is entrusted with the maintenance and safety audit. But he does nothing and charges a large some for it. On the whole, the reticulated system is not economical at all.

I live in a housing society that has Reticulated gas supply. I have following queries with respect to subsidy facility for Reticulated gas consumer. 1) How does Reticulated gas consumer avail DBTL option 2) Can the housing society deny me subsidy gas thru RGS even though OMC has provision for supply 3) if in a society there is mix opinion of residents who want to give up subsidy under give-up campaign and some who still want to avail subsidy how does association facilitate both the options 4) since only one consumer number is allotted to entire housing complex does this mean subsidy product is an asset of association and can association deny subsidy to a rightful consumer of RGS if he/she is willing to comply with OMC formalities. 5) Is there any document that explains the procedure on how housing society can give-up subsidy under give-up campaign.
If you have any idea please let me know.
