Link Aadhaar Card To Bharat Gas

The Aadhaar card is a 12-digit unique identification number that is issued to every resident of India. The UIDAI functions under the planning commission of India, and is responsible for managing Aadhaar numbers and issuing Aadhaar identification cards.

The Aadhaar project was initiated as an attempt towards having a single, unique identification document or number that would capture all the details, including demographic and biometric information, of every resident Indian citizen. 

The government of India has recently introduced the direct benefit scheme. The Aadhaar plays a pivotal role in helping you avail the benefits of this scheme. A customer must link the 12-digit Aadhaar card number to the LPG gas connection. This facility eliminates the chances of a customer not receiving subsidies. The process is simple and easy to understand. A customer can opt for different methods listed below to link their Aadhaar cards to Bharat Gas.

Benefits:  Listed below are the benefits that you will receive once you link your LPG gas connection to the Aadhaar:

• An amount equivalent to the subsidy will be deposited in your bank account as soon as you book the first LPG cylinder.
• With the first delivery, an amount equivalent to the subsidy will again be deposited in your account.
• Subsidy amount is applicable to only nine cylinders per year.
• Those who want to avail a subsidy must have an account in public sector banks. This will in turn benefit the poorer sections who then can open their zero balance accounts by linking Aadhaar.
•  It will also help inculcate the banking habit among the poorer sections of society along with receiving the gas subsidies.
• If the person in whose name the gas connection exists expires or relocates, then the subsidies will be stopped.
• This measure effectively curbs black marketing of LPG.
• If you don’t want to link your bank account with Aadhaar card, you will not be eligible for any subsidy.
