IndianOil says it enhanced Auto LPG supplies in Bengaluru to over 300 per cent
Bengaluru (PTI): IndianOil on Thursday said it has significantly augmented its Auto LPG supplies to Bengaluru, increasing volumes to over 300 per cent of the usual supply to meet the sharp surge in demand arising from ongoing geopolitical disruptions affecting private sector supply chains.
In a statement, the oil company said it had supplied 75.53 metric tonnes (MT) of Auto LPG in Bengaluru on Wednesday, “substantially higher than the usual daily supply of around 23 MT prior to the crisis”.
“This rapid scale-up reflects IndianOil’s steadfast commitment to ensuring uninterrupted fuel availability for the city’s mobility ecosystem,” IndianOil said.
Across Karnataka, IndianOil has also substantially ramped up supplies, increasing its daily dispatches to over 83 MT in recent days, compared to its pre-crisis average of around 43.5 MT per day, effectively doubling supplies to support the state’s requirements during the ongoing disruption, it added.
According to IndianOil, the surge in demand has been primarily driven by disruptions in private Auto LPG dispensing stations (ALDS), which traditionally account for nearly 80 per cent of the Auto LPG market in Karnataka, including Bengaluru.
The non-operation or closure of these private outlets has led to a significant shift in customer traffic towards IndianOil Retail Outlets, resulting in long queues at IndianOil ALDS stations, it pointed out.
“IndianOil has responded with a comprehensive operational strategy, with all its ALDS outlets in Bengaluru functioning uninterrupted, ensuring seamless service to our esteemed customers,” the company said.
