Every time I book cylinder with the hope to receive the same within week, which distributor claims as well.

But every time I have to follow up number of times before it can be delivered. Normal time is 15 days or more.

Would like to draw the attention of authority for the abnormality in the distribution process.

It is Sriram Gas Agency in Bangalore (Rammurthy Nagar)

I am a LPG Indane gas customer with Sudheendra Indane gas agency (Indane LPG distributors), 2nd main 80 feet, Hennur road, HBR layout Bangalore... 25440772, 25441772, 22726696, 25434221, 25436995


My consumer number is S26303, I have booked for Additional cylinder on 26-Sept-2007.
And had been informed that will be receiving the connection in 6th months from the booking date..
But I dint not get any intimation from Indane (Indian Oil Corporation) dealer as such
Not at received my connection, when I enquired they say that still 2006 booked customers dint get the connection and government is not issuing any cylinders..
They would have told us at the time of booking… but this does not happened.
Im not sure how true it is, please make sure what exactly the problem do let me know..
Please do some thing on this as im facing too much problem..
We cant book the cylinder unless it empty.. and need to up to 10+ days after booking.. so what do I do for so many days.
Or else if I book the cylinder before hand after the 30 days or then I will receive it after 10+ and I had give my running cylinder..
Im facing too much Problem due to this..

Please take some action on this.. and let me get the connection as soon as possible.. at least the proper date when will I get the Connection

Dear Sir or Madam,

I am staying in Kullu, Himachal Pradesh and having a gas connection with Indane Distributor "Spick-n-Span" (Phone no. [protected]) since 27.12.07. My consumer No. is 26177. We book our gas refill to the distributor on phone, but we are facing always delay in the delivery of cylinder. This time I booked my refill order on 22.08.08 and was been given waiting no. 4979. The person who attended the phone and given me the waiting no. assured for the delivery of cylinder after a week. After 10 days on September 1st, when I called up on distributors', they informed delivery will go tomorrow. Next day again I called up and the answer was same. On 3rd Sep. owner of the shop informed me that delivery boy has gone to my house area and today defenitely he will deliver. Today on 5th when I reached to distributors' to ask the status, they started talking abusly. They were three-four persons dealt very badly. I only asked to tell me that which date and what waiting no. is being delivered today, they said we can't tell this to consumer. Every time I am getting my gas delivery after following up atleast for ten times with atleast 20 phone calls. Please look in to the matter. Thanks and Regards,

Dear Sir,
This isto draw your kindattention that I am consumer of Indane gas From Dogra agency, Dighawani, Parasia, In chhindwara district in M.P Through Franchisee Ganesh Gupta in Newton Colliery, Parasia.
There is shortage of gas and therefore he charges extra 100 to150 Rupees per gas to give consumer their gas, moreover he never take bookings and supplies gases to his acquatances and in motels and hotels depriving the consumers.
we the consumers are left with no other option but to pay high prices for getting per cylinder of gas.
so, it is my earnest request to kindly intervene into the matter and take decision accordingly

Unfortunately I am consumer of your gas agency name Bedi Indane, B-43, Kartar Nagar, Main 3½ Pusta, Delhi-110053, Ph. 22946868, 22946800, Consumer No. BI-2119 Delhi last somany years. Firstly phones line always busy i[censored] want to book ur gas then u have to wait two hour or so. They booked gas after 15 or 20 days and send our home after 10 days when We make many time call to him. They already book my cylinder when I book my cylinder. They book my cylinder himself and doing black marketing to it. When I am going to his office they send my cylinder without booking. This is very rediculious. i would request you to pls do something otherwise i have to go another way. thats it.

Dear Sir:

This is to inform you that I had booked for LPG gas cylinder on August 30, 2008 and the gas agency "Sahaj Enterprises" told me that they will deliver the cylinder after 4-5 days. Today, I called the agency, now they told me that they will be able to supply the cylinder after 10-12 days.

Further to inform you that each and every time after booking they deliver the cylinder after 10-15 days later.

My humble request to you, please take the necessary action in this regard so that consumer harassment will be stopped.

Thanking you,

Sincerely yours,

Navin Arya

Dear Sir,
I am a consumer of Indane gas (Consumer no.23457) through M/s Parul Gas Agency, Hardev Nagar, Jharoda, Delhi-110084. I have booked Gas on 25.08.2008 and delivery boy (Mr. Rajesh) brought the cylinder on 01.09.2008 around 3.00 pm. That time I was not at home, my father asked him to bring the weighing machine and he replied that my machine out of order since last three months. After that my father refused to take the cylinder without weighing because since last months he delivered the leakage cylinder and also threat that (Lena hai to lo nai to apki gas hamesha ke liye band karwa dunga). Then my father informed me over phone at that time I was in office and I tried to talk in above gas agency but there is no person to attend the phone.

Please note that the delivery boy was not in Indane Uniform and he had no weighing machine which is mandatory.

This is clearly shows that agencies persons are involved in this type of theft. Without agencies people how delivery boy can do the same.

Please take the necessary action against the M/s Parul Gas Agency and Mr. Rajesh also.

We had already told to the agency many times but there is no proper response from their side.

After that I had sent a mail to Mr. Ashok Chhatwani, Sales Officer, but there is no response towerds him. So I am sending this mail to you.

Waiting response from your side at the earliest.

Thanking You,

Yours Sincerely

I have booked for LPG cylender on[protected] but till date the distributer has failed to suply the same to my residence. They even denied to inform me as to when they will suply the same. By this time I am facing lots of problem without LPG cylender.

I am a low usage consumer of LPG consuming 1 cylinder every 6-8 months. We assiduously try to conserve gas due to environmental and social reasons. A few days back, I tried to book a refill (after 8 months), I was told that my connection has been deactivated and I have to go to area office to get it reactivated. In the area office I explained my position and the officer endorsed my application and assured me that my annual consumption of 2-3 cylinders would be noted and I would not be bothered again. When I went to the dealer, I was informed that since the "new software" would not accept a one time endoresmet I have to go to the area office EACH time I want a new cylinder and get an fresh endorsement. I called the area office again and told the dealer to talk to the official. Then the official told me that "either I can get the endorsement every time or I can discontinue the service".

I wrote a complaint to the IOC from their website, and got a stock reply that it is their "policy". Request for further information on this poilcy has been ignored.

I would like to file an RTI to find out what this "policy" is. As consumers are we not supposed to know what this policy is? How can IOC deactivate the acct. without any notice? Since this is a recent phenomenon how come they did not inform the public about this?

When I was at the agency I was surprised to note that many consumers were in the same position.

I have checked with HP, they also have this new policy.

I am consumer of INDANE from M/s Shuklaganj Gas Service, Agency code 155794, Shuklaganj 209861. Unnao. My consumer number is 15342.

Whenever a consumer goes to agency for refilling after 3-4 hours of standing in line the men of the agency call the consumer on a fixed date after 3 to 4 days. Then they put a stamp on the voucher and give another date to come. Again on said date consumer has to stand in line for 4-5 hours. Then they receive money and give one slip and ask to come after 6-7 days to get the cylinder. On that day again consumer has to stand 4-5 hours in line to get a cylinder. Many times after 4-5 hours they inform that cylinders have finished come on next day. That is the way this agency is working. Consumer is getting cylinder refilled after 60-75 days.

One old lady, who was 72, had a problem in walking. On 25th August 2008, she came to get the voucher stamped. From 7.00 am to 12.00 noon she kept standing in the line. At 12.00 noon agency owner informed the consumer that required number of vouchers have been stamped, now rest of people will go back and come again on next day. Crowed started arguing with agency owner. The man and his employees started pushing the crowed out from his shop. The old lady who was standing there felt down on the ground and got hurt on her head. I took her to nearby nursing home and back to her house after required treatment.
I had a talk with Mr.Sudhakar Giri, Area Sales Manager, Panki, Kanpur on this issue. I asked him to order the agency for home delivery. I was surprised, when he told me that he can not do any thing. HOME DILIVERY IS NOT POSSIBLE. Next day agency owner refused to give me any refilling, because I have persuaded the matter to the senior official. Now he is saying, “Go Bajpai, Do, what ever you feel like. Now You will never receive any refilling.

I am surprised to understand that Mr. Giri is backing the agency. How can he refuse home delivery? Why can not consumer get refilling after 30 days?

I humbly request you to look in to the matter and do the needful. I request you to punish the agency and such officer, So that in future no one is harassed.

Dear Sir
I am a consumer having single cylinder facility and want to have double cylinder as I am having big familiy. But since four month passed our local gas agency 'Mahanta Indane' is time and again repeating the same answer that 'until unless the company allows new gas connection we can't provide you the same and the company has stopped new connection for time being', though no such circular has been notified for consumer information. Very recently an enlarged paper cut of your circular (in oriya) has been sticked before the counter for consumer notice that 'Indian Oil has stopped new gas connection'.

Costumer harashment like 'irregularities in distribution' is a regular practice here. That may be due to poor communication facilities or else ; but as a consumer I would like to suggest you that to avoid the overload on 'Mahanta Indane' one more counter should be opened in this localities as the locality population is more than 2 lakhs (approx).

Kindly look into the matter and help me to run smooth family life.

Waiting the best from your end.

Thanking You

Sir/Madam,

I am consumer of Indane Gas. Our area service provider is “SUKH-DHAM GAS SERVICE”, C-8/4, Shopping Centre, Lawrence Road, Delhi-35. It is our long experience with them that they never respond on phone. For any problem, we have to go all the way to their door step, quite far from our residence. For instance, on 29.8.08, leakage was detected in cylinder. I tried to contact the Gas Agency on phone but I could not do so and Field Officer’s Mobile was also out of reach. Help Line Numbers 23411282, 23411654 & Emergency Nos. 23841235, 23846584 were also out of reach. I had to come back from my work place and lodge the complaint in person. Today again, I had to rush to their office for registering my complaint for leakage but that proved fruitless and complaint was not attended to. I requested them to give Complaint Book, I was told that Complaint Book cannot be given, as being the last day of the month, the same has been sent to IOCL.

Further more, their delivery personnel, while delivering gas cylinder, never carry weighing machine and are reluctant to weigh the cylinder.

It is requested that “SUKH-DHAM GAS SERVICE” may kindly be instructed to be customer friendly and caring.

Thanks.
Yours faithfully,

Dear Sir / Madam

I introduce myself as a Customer to Indane Cooking Gas. I am residing at # 52, Kaikondarahalli, Near Bus stop, Carmelram post,
Sarjapur Road, Bangalore 560035.

My Gas connection is thro you dealer KK Indane Enterprises, near Iblur bus stop in Sarjapur road vide Consumer # D0064322.

This time we have booked for cylinder on 11th August but regret to note that as on today (29th Aguust) we have not received the Cylinder supply from your dealer for reasons not known to us.

We are not getting any clear status inspite of our repeated follow up calls / personal visit to the dealer's place.

One one hand we are literally struggling with such hsort of short supplies and on the other hand we are really surprised as to how Indian oil / Indane is able to manage with such dealers in today's COMPETITIVE WORLD

Kindly check with the dealer from your side and resolve the issues at once
