Switching to Induction? Know These 8 Facts Before Ditching LPG Gas!

• Many switch to induction due to gas shortages and rising prices, seeking speed, safety, and energy efficiency.
• Induction requires magnetic-base utensils; most traditional Indian aluminum, copper, or thin steel cookware won't work, necessitating new purchases.
• Gas offers instant flame control crucial for Indian cooking (tarka, bhunna), while induction has preset levels and heats very fast.
• Induction is energy-efficient (85-90% heat transfer) and safer (no open flame, cool surface), but useless during power cuts common in India.
• Consider utensil costs, frequent power cuts (keep gas backup), and a learning curve for Indian cooking methods before making the switch.
