Get LPG cylinders at petrol pumps

Even through it is good for people when they need LPG in emergencies but I think this will attract the black marketing and petrol pump owners will be in profit, no one else.

There is a risk of exploitation by the Bunk owners. If they scent, the consumer is in urgency, they escalate the prices.

No chance, as every petrol pump will be selling these cylinders there won't be any monopoly. It's a good move to release customer from the clutches of gas agencies. There are many private services in metros where you can avail private cylinders on extra price almost the same as non subsidized rate. Fair enough.

The cylinder at petrol pump will be at market price (full price). There is no subsidy. The actual price may depend on intensity of demand. Most customers will get their supply from normal distribution channel at subsidized rates. There may not be too many at petrol pumps. So, there is less chance of overcharging there.
However, there is also a scheme yet to implement. Customers will get their cylinders st full price only whereas subsidy will be credited to their bank account. Then it matters little whether you buy from your distributor or petrol pump.

I think that's great fodder for black market. If cylinders will be given without having even the connection, what more can one ask for?

That's the advantage they take. This is going on all around. And even if there isn't any urgency, still they can extract more bucks.

There is another news today that smaller cylinders will also be sold by retail outlets. Thus the black marketing by unauthorized individuals will end. This will also ensure security.

Such measures will surely reduce black marketing of gas cylinders. It will be particularly good news for those who are living temporarily on rent and cannot get a proper connection and has to depend on cylinders sold on black markets

Non subsidies LPG will be sold in almost double price. Thats means if the normal one is coming in 400 then you will get the cylinder at petrol pump at 800 to 900, which is nothing less than black market price :(

I don;t understand how this will curb black marketting? People will be ready to pay more if they are geting the cylinders. Anyone can do that.

Adequate supply eliminates black market. Once there was black market for Vespa scooters, Land line phones, Maruti cars, gas connections, cinema tickets. All these are now eliminated.

Government is coming up with 2,3,5,7 and 10 kg good quality cylinders available at every petrol pump at market rate, that is a good move that should eliminate black marketeers from the scene.

At present, the black marketeers are doing great business because the demand is more and the supply outlet is less. And for those who do not have proper connections, at present black marketeers are the only option to get the gas cylinders. So what i feel is that providing more sources to get the cylinders will break the monopoly of black marketeers and thus be helpful in curbing black marketing.

Even if one has to pay Rs 800-Rs 900 to get cylinders from the petrol pump, at least it is something which is fixed for everyone. At present, the black marketeers can demand as much as Rs 1500 depending on how desperate the customer is!!

All what you mentioned are not importnat to life. But LPG is the need of even a poor man. I don't think comparing cars and film tickets with a gas cylinder will be just.

Thats true, it can cut down blackmarket deals to a great extent...In my city it costs Rs 1800 for a cylinder and this is being openly done with the authorities looking the other way...

The mention of Maruti car, Vespa scooter and Landline phone is just to show how black market ended in these. Similarly, adequate and easy supply of LPG will eliminate Black market as happened in other cases. There is nothing about relative significance in daily life.

Exactly, while you have enough options to choose from, the market belongs to buyer in place of sellers' market. They may even offer deals on cylinders, while the supply will be in excess.

When it will available at normal non subsidy price than who will pay more for it. How many person are paying more for diseal and petrol at this time.

I remember my economics lecturer teaching us about commodity and price. She gave an example which I have never forgotten - When a man is very tired and is achin to have acup of coffee and there is only one cup available with 3 or 4 others all wanting the same he is ready to pay whatevr price is being demanded whtehr it is valid or not...When a second cup is offered for the same price, he will think twice and for the third cup, he would start baargaining ! It is all a matter of need ,demand and supply ! so also with LPG cylinders..
