Ujjwala LPG Subsidy: Why Linking Aadhar with Bank Accounts Is Crucial

The Uttar Pradesh government has raised the LPG subsidy for Ujjwala beneficiaries from ₹200 to ₹300 per cylinder. As a result, the payable amount for a 14.2 kg LPG cylinder has dropped from ₹703 to ₹603. However, this benefit is available only to beneficiaries who have linked their bank accounts with their Aadhar card. Failure to do so will deny the subsidy.

Key Highlights

• Subsidy increased to ₹300 per cylinder.
• Beneficiaries now pay ₹603 for a 14.2 kg cylinder.
• 1.27 lakh beneficiaries have completed Aadhar‑bank linking.
• 23,944 beneficiaries remain unlinked and risk losing the subsidy.
• DM RK Tyagi has issued directives to expedite the linking process.

How to Link Aadhar with Your Bank Account

• Visit the nearest bank branch where your Ujjwala account is held.
• Submit a self‑attested copy of your Aadhar card.
• Request the bank clerk to update the Aadhar details in the account.
• Complete the “seeding” process; you will receive a confirmation SMS.

Why Prompt Action Is Important

Without Aadhar‑bank linking, the subsidy cannot be credited, and beneficiaries will have to pay the full ₹703 price. The deadline for linking is not officially announced, but delays may result in missing the subsidy for the upcoming festive season.
