The India Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) market reached approximately 32.20 MMTPA in FY2022 and is expected to grow at a steady CAGR of around 4% by FY2030.

Liquefied petroleum gas, commonly known as LPG, is a combustible gas that runs companies and homes all over the world A variety of hydrocarbons, such as butane or propane, make up its composition. LPG is synthesized in oil refineries and also at LPG Extract/ Gas Fractionators. At the refineries, LPG contains C3 and C4 (Propane & Butanes) components from the distillation unit along with Propylene and Butylene from secondary conversion units. Whereas, in the gas fractionators, LPG consists of C3 & C4 saturated components (Propane & Butanes). LPG is stored and transported in pressurized containers, often steel tanks, as a liquid. In addition to being used as a domestic fuel for cooking and heating, LPG has a number of industrial and commercial applications. Since LPG gas is clean, safe, and effective, most industries use it. It has a high calorific value and offers specific temperature control. Other applications of LPG include galvanizing, metal melting, heat treatment, steam generation, etc.

The growing demand for clean cooking fuels in rural, as well as urban households, is expected to give a boost to the country’s LPG market in the forecast period. Support of the government in form of initiatives and subsidies to boost the sales of LPG is contributing to the market growth. Demand from the household sector increased in recent years. While the Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana (PMUY) offers free LPG stoves to low-income families, the Direct Benefit Transfer of LPG (DBTL) provides subsidies to the marginalized group of the nation. Furthermore, other government schemes like Ujjwala schemes to provide free LPG connections to women in below-poverty-line households across the nation are promoting the usage of LPG with a concern for women's health. India Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) market volume is estimated to reach approximately 38 MMTPA by FY2030. Further, India domestic production is not self sufficient to meet the country’s demand therefore India import around 40-50% of LPG to meet its domestic demand.

Based on the region, the Indian Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) market is segregated into the West, South, North, and East. As of FY2022, North India has been leading the market followed by West India in FY2022, North India held approximately 30% of the market.

Based on end-use, the India Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) market is segregated into Residential, Commercial, Industrial, and Others. In FY2022, the Residential industry made up approximately 87% of the domestic demand. This industry is anticipated to dominate the market even in the forthcoming years. In the upcoming years, the country's LPG market is anticipated to expand because of rising household demand for clean cooking fuels in both rural and urban areas.
