The Central government will remove temporary restrictions on petrol and diesel sales from July 1. The curbs were introduced to protect fuel supplies during the US-Israel conflict with Iran and concerns over the Strait of Hormuz. Commercial buyers were not allowed to buy fuel from retail pumps, and limits were placed on diesel purchases. With fuel supplies improving, the government has decided to end the restrictions. Commercial LPG supplies have also returned to normal levels. However, industries and businesses that have already switched to Piped Natural Gas (PNG) will not be allowed to return to LPG.
