This document examines promoting LPG penetration in rural India by analyzing affordability and accessibility. It discusses India's growing energy demand and trends in primary energy consumption. It then focuses on LPG as a cooking fuel, including global production and consumption, India's status and subsidy program, and reforms implemented. Barriers to LPG access and affordability in rural India are identified, and approaches to address them are suggested. Recommendations for further improving rural LPG access conclude the document.
