Indian government has launched new initiative "Opt Out of Subsidy and PAHAL DBTL Scheme" asking Indians who can afford to buy LPG at the market price to contribute voluntarily and opt out of LPG subsidy and instead purchase LPG at non-subsidized rate. The subsidy amount which is nearly Rs. 200 per cylinder can then be used for various projects/initiatives for the nation building such as – infrastructure development, health care services, help poor people and many others. It is estimated that subsidy of Rs. 46,000 crore will be reduced by targeting nearly one crore people. So far nearly 3 crore people have opted out resulting in a saving of Rs. 100 crore.
Also the main objective of subsidy is to make LPG available to the poor and needy people.
