As the Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited (HPCL) wrote to Airtel about the complaints of the LPG consumers who didn’t receive their subsidy, the telecom operator agreed to return the entire 190 crores worth of subsidy along with the due interest amount to their original bank accounts that are linked to the Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) scheme.
HPCL, as well as Indian Oil, and Bharat Petroleum had recently found that the DBT accounts of numerous consumers had been changed to Airtel Payments Bank in the records of the National Payments Corporation of India. To address this anomaly HPCL wrote to Airtel on the behalf of all them all.
