Rs 5 discount on online payment of LPG cylinder

[Optimus_Prime]

Cooking gas customers can now avail an upfront discount of Rs 5 on every refill booked and paid for online.
Indian Oil, Bharat Petroleum and Hindustan Petroleum have begun offering the price discount to cooking gas customers, the oil ministry has said in a statement. Customers can pay using net banking, credit and debit cards at the time of online booking, it said. The discounted amount will be seen on customers' screens as well as the cash memo accompanying the cylinder.
India has about 21 crore cooking gas consumers and most of them pay by cash currently.
"The incentive will encourage more and more liquefied petroleum gas consumers to go for cashless mode of transactions," the statement said.
State oil companies are already offering 0.75% discount on the purchase of petrol and diesel to customers paying digitally. These efforts are in line with the Narendra Modi-led government's thrust on reducing the use of cash in the economy.

Online payment via website is available from long time though I have never used it as I mostly book from app. They should incorporate payment facility in app itself as smartphone has greater penetration than PC.  :s

BTW why app isn't working for you bro ?  :huh

It is running fine here

HP gas website charges Rs. 7 as convenience fee for online bookings. Moreover, the payment made is not final as the price you pay will be as per LPG price on delivery date. So you've to settle difference with delivery guy!
Why people will choose this over COD method with such hassles?

Update after cylinder delivery:
TL,DR - Almost smooth delivery & no cash involved!

Cylinder was delivered a week after online booking/payment. As usual delivery guy handed over cash memo & asked for payment. Price on cash memo was same as what I paid (before Rs. 5 discount). So at-least there was nothing to settle! But only bad thing is that cash memo doesn't bear any reference of the online booking transaction.
I told him about online payment & showed the payment proof printout. He said nobody informed him about this. He told me to speak to office - as usual nobody picked up so he himself spoke to his boss & got convinced that this was cashless delivery!! In all this, I think he forgot to ask about his own kharcha - pani (cash reward for delivering cylinder)!! Next time too I'll opt for online payment.
