According to the news of Business Standard, SBC or single bottle cylinder customers i.e. those who have only 1 LPG cylinder, find it difficult when the cylinder ends suddenly. The second category is those that have two cylinders with 1, they are called DBC or double bottle consumers. They have the option that if one cylinder is finished then use another.
