Instamart, the quick commerce platform of Swiggy, has partnered with Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited (HPCL) to launch India’s first on-demand LPG cylinder delivery service on a quick commerce platform.

The service will first go live in Bengaluru, where consumers can order HP Navya, the PSU’s 10 kg composite LPG cylinder and the 5 kg metal LPG cylinder through the platform.

For a wider set of consumers

Notably, no existing domestic LPG connection is required to place orders. The partnership aims to make on-demand option available for a wider set of consumers, including students, working professionals and smaller households.

“Instamart has expanded its consumption use cases well beyond groceries to become part of everyday life. With HPCL, we’re extending that convenience to an essential household service, bringing LPG onto Instamart while maintaining the safety and reliability standards consumers expect,” said Amitesh Jha, CEO, Instamart, in a statement.

First-time purchases are fulfilled as new cylinder purchases and would require identity verification, with proof-of-delivery documentation built into the process. Thereafter, consumers can place refill orders by returning the empty HPCL cylinder at the time of delivery.

Orders are fulfilled through HPCL’s authorised distributor network and delivered by the distributor’s trained personnel.

“Through the Instamart platform, we will be able to reach customers through a fast, convenient and digitally enabled platform, making HP Navya Composite LPG Cylinders more accessible while enhancing the overall customer experience,” said Amit Garg, Director-Marketing, HPCL, in a statement.
