Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited (HPCL) has delivered more than 323 lakh LPG cylinders across India between April 1 and April 26, 2026, underlining the company’s large-scale operational capacity and strong distribution network amid rising domestic energy demand.
The company said its nationwide LPG ecosystem continued to function seamlessly across urban centres, small towns and remote regions. To maintain uninterrupted supply, HPCL dispatched more than 1,86,644 fuel tankers during the period, including 403 tankers on April 26 alone, ensuring timely replenishment across its distribution chain.
HPCL also reported increased demand for smaller and affordable cooking fuel options. During the period, the company supplied over 6.84 lakh Free Trade LPG cylinders of 5 kg and more than 26,000 cylinders of 2 kg, catering to migrant workers, small vendors and households with varying energy needs.
The company said its digital-first approach has strengthened operational efficiency, with 99.5 per cent of LPG bookings now being processed through digital platforms. This has enabled faster allocation, streamlined routing and timely deliveries across markets.
To maintain accountability within its distribution system, HPCL conducted 6,026 inspections between March 14 and April 26, taking action against 163 distributors, including 34 suspensions. The company also carried out 664 raids, registered 44 FIRs and seized 4,155 LPG cylinders.
