To make LPG more affordable to PMUY consumers and ensure sustained usage of LPG by them, Government started a targeted subsidy of ₹200/- per 14.2 kg cylinder for upto 12 refills per year (and proportionately pro-rated for 5 Kg connections) to the PMUY consumers on May 2022.

This subsidy was increased by ₹100 in October 2023 taking the total subsidy to ₹300. The subsidy is credited directly to bank accounts of the eligible beneficiaries.
