DBTK (Direct Benefit Transfer in PDS Kerosene)
Ministry of Petroleum & Natural Gas launched DBT in PDS Kerosene (DBTK) Scheme with effect from 01.04.2016. The DBTK Scheme was applicable for 4 years from the date of commencement i.e. till F.Y 2019-20 only. The need to implement DBTK was felt to initiate reforms in Allocation and Distribution of Public Distribution System (PDS) Superior Kerosene Oil (SKO) distribution system, to stop pilferage of subsidy and to reduce the outflow of Central subsidy on kerosene to States / Union Territories (UTs) to a realistic level.
