The move will help beneficiaries of the scheme who have been given the advance but could not get the refilled LPG cylinder.

And now this breather has been further relaxed until September with effect from July 1 as told by information and broadcasting minister Prakash Javadekar told reporters after the cabinet meeting. "This will benefit those PMUY beneficiaries who have been credited with the advance for buying the cylinders, but have not been able to purchase the refill. Thus, the beneficiaries who already have the advance transferred to their account can now take the free refill delivery till 30 September," the petroleum ministry added on Wednesday.
