Premium Light Diesel Oil (LDO)

Kushal Trading Co. is India's leading supplier of high-grade Light Diesel Oil (LDO), delivering clean-burning distillate fuels that power medium to slow-speed engines and industrial utility systems nationwide.

Light Diesel Oil (LDO) is a blended distillate fuel with a small fraction of residual oil, making it highly effective for machinery with moderate rpm ratings. It is widely preferred in various heaters, pumps, and generators because it provides reliable heat generation with a low carbon emission footprint compared to heavier oils.

Key Features of Our Light Diesel Oil

  • High Fuel Efficiency: Delivers consistent calorific value for lower fuel consumption.
  • Clean Burn: Low carbon residue protects engines from internal soot buildup.
  • Low Sediments: Negligible water and sediment content ensures long filter life.
  • Balanced Viscosity: Optimal viscosity levels ensure uniform flow in extreme temperatures.
