LPG Delivery Rules Changed: DAC Code Now Mandatory for Cylinder Delivery
LPG consumers now need to stay alert while booking cylinders. Gas companies have introduced a new system called the DAC (Delivery Authentication Code), making deliveries more secure and transparent. If you receive cylinders at home, this update directly affects you.
DAC Code: Your Delivery Password
The DAC works just like an OTP sent to your phone after booking a cylinder. At the time of delivery, you must share this code with the delivery agent. Without it, the cylinder will not be handed over. This step aims to stop fake deliveries, wrong billing, and illegal diversion of cylinders.
What Exactly Is a DAC Number?
DAC stands for Delivery Authentication Code. It’s a unique code generated for every booking and linked to your registered mobile number. This ensures that the cylinder reaches the right customer only after proper verification.
How You Receive the DAC Code
Once you book an LPG cylinder, the code is sent to your registered mobile number via SMS. In many cases, it is also shared through the official app or WhatsApp. The code is tied to your booking, so it stays valid only for that specific delivery.
What Happens at the Time of Delivery?
When the delivery agent arrives, they will ask for the DAC number. You simply need to check your phone and share the code. Only after entering the correct code will the delivery be marked as complete.
Didn’t Get the DAC Code? Here’s What to Do
Sometimes, due to network issues or delays, the code may not reach you immediately. In such cases, you can request the delivery agent to resend it. You can also retrieve the code through the gas company’s app or by contacting your local gas agency.
Why This Change Matters
This new system strengthens customer safety and ensures that every LPG cylinder reaches the rightful user. While it adds one extra step, it significantly reduces chances of fraud and improves overall service reliability.
With DAC now becoming a key part of LPG delivery, keeping your registered mobile number active and accessible is more important than ever.
