 Beneficiaries will receive a brief message on their phones that the cylinder booking has been registered.  The government has already negotiated with HPCIL, Indian Oil and Bharat Petroleum companies to provide gas cylinders within 48 hours of booking.  The cash will be deposited into the accounts of the eligible beneficiaries within 48 hours from the moment the cylinder is provided.  On the other hand, the state government has already given orders to provide Rs.895 crores to the oil companies.  Civil Supplies Department will provide this cash under DBT system.
