The PAHAL (DBTL) scheme aims to streamline the subsidy process for LPG cylinders by providing subsidies directly to the Aadhaar-linked bank accounts of customers. Under this scheme, subsidies are available for up to 12 cylinders per year. Additionally, modified schemes accommodate customers without Aadhaar cards, ensuring they can still receive the subsidy.
However, it's important to note that families with an annual income exceeding Rs. 10 lakhs are not eligible to receive gas subsidies under this scheme. This measure helps target subsidies to those who need them most, ensuring efficient utilization of resources while still providing support to eligible households.
