IndianOil scales up Auto LPG supplies across Karnataka amidst surge in demand

Bengaluru: Indian Oil Corporation Limited (IndianOil) has significantly scaled up its Auto LPG supplies across the state of Karnataka in response to a recent surge in demand, particularly following the closure or partial shutdown of several private Auto LPG outlets in Bengaluru and other parts of the state.

IndianOil is currently meeting the fuel requirements of auto rickshaws and LPG-driven cars through its extensive network of 55 Auto LPG Dispensing Stations (ALDS) spread across Karnataka. With over 300 outlets operated by private players reportedly closed or partially operational, a substantial portion of the demand has shifted to Public Sector Undertaking (PSU) outlets.

A press statement, issued by V Vetriselvakkumar, Chief General Manager (Corporate Communications), IndianOil, Southern Regional Office, Chennai, states that despite the increased operational load on its infrastructure, IndianOil has made concerted efforts to ensure uninterrupted supply and efficient service delivery to LPG-powered vehicles during this challenging period.

The average daily sales at IndianOil’s ALDS in Karnataka have risen sharply to 59.53 metric tonnes (MT), compared to the previous three-month average of 43.4 MT, reflecting a significant increase in consumer demand.

IndianOil reiterates its unwavering commitment to ensuring seamless fuel accessibility while adhering to government directives and maintaining equitable distribution across all sectors.
