Hi
I have got a full cylinder from HPGas delivered during March 2024 when i booked for refill. Now when we wanted to use it, we saw it is written as A-24 on the cylinder.
So im not sure what it means. But when I read online, some mentioned as expiry date and some mentioned that Jan-March 2024, the cylinder has to be tested.
Do you guys have any information about this ? attached the image here.
Please tell if we can use this Cylinder or need to complain to the distributer.
Thanks

No issues as long as it is intact. Avoid if there is a smell or leak.
Have used 4 year old cylinder after covid and no issues observed
Yes, every cylinder has its expiry date,
you can call it a testing date but after testing your expiry date will be renewed and will be mentioned on it for a particular period.
And some cylinders are recycled also after expiry date.
And
As in your case it's A 24
A 1 qtr Jan - March
B 2 qtr Apr - June
C 3 qtr July - Sep
D 4 qtr Oct - Dec
So A 24 Means 1qtr of 2024
So your cylinder is already expired as per rule.
Your cylinder expired.
Avoid such cylinders and if possible check your local dealer for possibility to exchange this.
Yes, complaint to agency asap don't use it.
