Advise consumers against panic buying
Srinagar, Apr 03: Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) on Friday said that the supply of petroleum products and LPG remains stable and adequate to meet current demand across the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir.
According to Himanshu Sharma, State Level Coordinator for Oil Industry, J&K, the stock position of Motor Spirit (MS) and High-Speed Diesel (HSD) is normal across the Union Territory. OMC depots are maintaining adequate inventory levels, and retail outlets have sufficient stock to ensure uninterrupted sales.
He further informed that LPG stock positions at bottling plants are also comfortable, with inventory levels in line with prescribed norms and regular replenishments being undertaken.
Sharma said OMCs are closely monitoring the supply situation and have taken necessary steps to streamline logistics and expedite deliveries to maintain uninterrupted availability.
"Consumers have been advised to refrain from panic purchasing, as adequate stocks are available and supplies are being replenished regularly," he said. "LPG consumers have also been requested to book cylinders through digital modes and acknowledge receipt using the Delivery Authentication Code (DAC) to ensure a transparent and efficient delivery system."
Sharma said OMCs have sought public cooperation in maintaining smooth and efficient distribution of fuel and LPG across the Union Territory.
