You'll need a KYC form with your photo, Proof of Identity (POI) and Proof of Address (POA) documents. Your Aadhaar card can serve as both if the address matches. If you're a migrant, a Ration Card or a State Government document certifying your family composition is required; a Self-Declaration (Annexure I) is also an option. You'll also need copies of Aadhaar for yourself and all adult family members appearing on your ration card or equivalent document, along with your bank account details. For specific categories, supporting documents will be needed.

Yes, if your Aadhaar card contains the address where you want the LPG connection to be released, it can be used as both your Proof of Identity (POI) and Proof of Address (POA).

You can apply for an LPG connection under Ujjwala 2.0 in two ways: online through the official portal or by visiting your nearest Common Service Centre (CSC). Alternatively, you can apply offline by submitting your application directly at an LPG distributorship.

An adult woman from a poor household without an existing LPG connection is eligible. She must belong to categories like SC/ST, be a beneficiary of Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY) (Gramin), Antyodaya Anna Yojana (AAY), Forest dwellers, Most Backward Classes, Tea/Ex-Tea Garden tribes, or people living on river islands. If not in these specific groups, she can be considered under the 'Poor household' category by submitting a 14-point declaration.

To be considered a 'poor household' under Ujjwala 2.0, you must submit a 14-point declaration as per the prescribed format. This declaration is a mandatory requirement for all applicants claiming eligibility under this category.

Any type of Ration Card, whether APL (Above Poverty Line) or BPL (Below Poverty Line), will be accepted. The Ration Card is primarily used to verify the family composition of the beneficiary.

Yes, Aadhaar authentication (E-KYC) is mandatory for connections under Ujjwala 2.0. This is carried out through Biometric or Mobile OTP. However, Aadhaar authentication is optional in the states of Assam and Meghalaya.

Generally, no. Aadhaar for all adult family members on the Ration Card is required. If an Aadhaar card is unavailable, the distributor should help in getting one enrolled. Exemptions are only given in cases of death or marriage separation, with proper documentation like a death or marriage certificate.

The distributor needs to upload Proof of Identity (POI), Proof of Address (POA), Applicant's Aadhaar, Aadhaar copies of all adult family members, Ration Card or family composition document (or self-declaration for migrants), the 14-point declaration, and any supporting documents for specific category applications. They also need to confirm existing KYCs for eligibility and upload a Pre-Installation Check Report.

Yes, a connection can be provided if supporting documents like a Ration Card confirm a single adult member. If the Ration Card lists additional adult members, you'll need to provide a death certificate for deceased members or a marriage certificate for those who have left the family.

No, a PMUY connection can only be released in the name of an adult female member of the poor household. The scheme specifically targets women's empowerment and well-being.

If your current address differs from your Aadhaar card, you will need to submit other valid documents for Proof of Address (POA) as listed in Annexure - A. Your Aadhaar card will still be accepted as Proof of Identity (POI).
