LPG gas cylinders are used in our homes, and the government offers a special benefit for users like you.
Did you know that when you book a gas cylinder, the government and oil companies provide insurance coverage up to Rs 50 lakh for your family? The best part is, you don’t have to spend any money from your pocket for this insurance.
This insurance is important because LPG cylinders can be dangerous, and accidents like explosions can happen.
The government provides this coverage to help families recover from such incidents.
If any unfortunate incident occurs, you have the right to claim compensation from the government oil companies. Here are some details about the insurance:
1) In case of accidents, the government provides Rs 10 lakh per family member.
2) There is a maximum limit of Rs 50 lakh for the entire family.
3) If the property is damaged, you can claim Rs 2 lakh.
4) In the unfortunate event of a death, a personal accident cover of Rs 6 lakh is available.
5) For medical treatment, Rs 2 lakh per family member is provided, with a maximum limit of Rs 30 lakh.
It’s also important to check the expiry date of your gas cylinder. You can find the expiry date in a code on the top of the cylinder.
The code, like A-24, B-25, C-26, or D-27, represents the months. A is for January to March, B is for April to June, C is for July to September, and D is for October to December.
For example, A-24 means your cylinder will expire between January and March in the year 2024.
Understanding these codes ensures the safety and well-being of your family.
