Please don’t worry. Yours may be a new connection or transferred from one place/distributor to other one. Please upload your details on the web-site.

Then this message will disappear. Please bear with us.
16.I am not able to upload the ESCOM bill or LPG bill?
Please check the size of the scanned file and file type. It should be less than 200 KB of pdf or jpeg file type. If the file size is more, you can reduce it with lower resolution of scanning or folding the electricity bill to show only the top portion.

19.Why my LPG connection is being shown as “suspended”?
Your LPG Connection would have been shown as “suspended” may be because your Electricity meter RR number given along with your LPG Consumer number might not have been entered along with for your consumer number or may not exist in the RR Master of ESCOM or it may be a Commercial/industrial type.
20.What should I do if my LPG connection is being shown as suspended?
If the system says your consumer number is suspended, please see the reason and check the RR number. If there is no RR number or the RR number is wrong, you may have to upload the particulars into the web-site for further processing and acceptance by the department. If the number is not in the ESCOM RR master, then please wait for a few days. Such cases are taken up with the ESCOMs

Hello
I have submitted the details both online and physically also to the concerned agency. Now I am getting the following message in the website.
The Electr. RR No for the LPG Connection is under verification as more than one LPG
Connection is linked with this RR Number.
My inderstanding is that because I have submitted the same details twice(physically and through website), it has considered two LPG connections(both are in my name and having same consumer number)for the same RR number.
Please give your sound advise regarding this
@Anonymous That may not be the case as they mention more than one gas connection linked to this RR number .. you need to check who else has submitted same RR number…
Hi,
Gas geysers are more economical than electrical geysers. Also power cuts do not affect them. However an extra gas connection is required since it is not
possible to use a common gas pipe between the geyser and the stove when the kitchen and bathroom are far away. Also one cannot use one cylinder each for the
stove and geyser separately. Then when any cylinder is over, we will have a problem until the next delivery takes place. Hence, the dealers themselves
suggested that buyers can take additional connection for their gas geyser. There are a few thousand such genuine domestic users. Unfortunately, now they have
two connections in the same name, address and RR No. In most cases one connection is suspended. If the connection is terminated, these gas geysers will
become a costly waste. Commercial gas is too costly and uneconomical. Further, we will have to repalce them with costly electrical or solar geysers. Please
suggest how to solve this problem. Whom should we contact?

Right now i have 2 gas cylinders from Bharath Gas. I need one more cylinder as the number of family members have increased in my house and we constantly run out of gas before the empty cylinder is refilled. Can I get one more cylinder from the same gas dealers or should i apply for a new connection from another dealer?
@PSR You can only have 2 cylinder per family.. even goverment is thinking of cutting down it to 6 refills a year at subsidised rate…

Hello
I have submitted the details to the concerned agency on 24th of feb. but still my LPG connection is suspended.What should i do?
When we shifted in the year 2010 from Koppa to mangalore we got our Indane gas connection transferred to the new address by providing rental agreement copy. Now the owner is creating a problem that how did we take the connection without her consent as she wants to take a new connection? How is this possible? We changed so many houses never had this kind of problem from any owners. What should we do?
There is a requirement of a electricity bill copy for recongnizing the multiple connection in same house. If you are staying in rented house you can use your house electricity bill and owner can use their house electricity bill to avail the connection
Approach your Gas distributor
