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.

Reasons for diversion for A) Kerosene - i) adulteration with diesel ii) illegal export to neighbouring countries. Solution a) reduce price differential with diesel b) replace kerosene entitlements with subsidised LPG connections and Aadhar-based DBT. B) LPG - i) in industry, ii) automotive fuel.These diversions can be reduced by using decremental subsidy model for DBT,1st 6 cylinders - 100%, next 3 - 50%, nil beyond 9. New Aadhar-based connection on demand & kill non-Aadhar connection over 3 yrs

only way to prevent diversion/pilferage of subsidizedLPG is to implement Anti Pilfer Device. This is already tested for field trials, orders placed , kept in abeyance by UPA Govt. A Rs. 200 equipment positively stopes the diversion. The pilot project must be implemented immediately. This will also prevent the theft of 1 or 2 Kg of gas by the delivery person. this pilot project can be implemented in 2/3 weeks flat. Sure way to reduce LPG subsidy by 30--40 % and user gets full weight cylinder.

Linking with adhar will also let the government know how many people actually need subsidy depending on their earning. This would further reduce the subsidiary burden on the ex chequer

lpg and kerosene should be tagged to adhar cards should be sold at mkt. price from open market and the difference of subsidy and mkt price to be sent directly to the account. This is not fool proof but would reduce diversion considerably. Most diversion would be by the poor people in this case but government can be rest assured that the money subsidised money is not going into mafia. They would put this money back in economy by buying small goods which otherwise they could not have afforded
