India’s robust economic growth demands strong energy security. Guided by Hon’ble PM Sh Narendra Modi Ji, we have ensured that India’s energy needs remain protected even during global disruptions. Today, India is the world’s third-largest oil consumer and the fourth-largest refining hub, placing the country among a select group capable of responding effectively to global energy shocks. During the crisis, India was among only four countries along with the US, China, and Japan that released strategic oil reserves to stabilize global prices, demonstrating maturity, preparedness, and global responsibility. #BudgetSession2026

#EnergySecurity | Despite volatility in global energy markets, India continues to display resilience with its reserves. This buffer is in addition to the daily imports that continue to arrive through multiple routes. India has built a strong energy buffer with over 250 million barrels of crude and petroleum stocks (around 4000 crore litres) and refining capacity of 258 million metric tonnes per year, making it the 4th largest globally. Strategic reserves at Mangaluru, Padur and Visakhapatnam, along with storage in terminals, pipelines, tanks and tankers, provide 50–60 days of stock, higher than the global average. #IndiaEnergy #OilAndGas #EnergyPolicy #EnergySecurity

Around 20% of the world’s energy passes through this region, making it crucial for India, which imports nearly 40% of its crude oil, 90% of its #LPG, and 65% of its natural gas from the Middle East. Rising global prices have pushed crude oil from around $70 to nearly $120 per barrel, while LPG prices have also surged. Despite the losses faced by oil marketing companies, the Government of India has worked to protect consumers by reducing excise duty, increasing LPG production, promoting #PNG connections, and ensuring stable gas supplies. Petrol prices in India remain around ₹94.77 per litre, compared to nearly ₹200 per litre in countries such as Germany, France, and the UK. The government has also ensured an uninterrupted LPG supply, with no distributor facing shortages. - Sujata Sharma, Joint Secretary, Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas #MoPNG

There’s a lot of rumours online about India heading toward a fuel crisis. The reality is far less dramatic. India currently has enough fuel reserves, so there is no shortage and no talk of rationing. Over the past few years, India has also diversified its oil imports, buying crude from 40+ countries including the US, Russia, Brazil, Guyana and several African nations. So the idea that India depends entirely on the Middle East is simply not true. Even in the case of tensions in the Gulf or a disruption around the Strait of Hormuz, only about 40% of India’s oil passes through that route, and contingency plans—including alternative routes and naval protection for shipments—are already in place. Behind the scenes, the system is far more prepared than people think. India has built strategic underground petroleum reserves, expanded its pipeline network to nearly 26,000 km, and monitoring teams track fuel stocks and supply chains 24×7 to ensure there are no disruptions. On prices, the global market has seen volatility, but domestic impact has been limited. Delhi petrol today is about ₹94.77, slightly lower than ₹95.41 in 2022. Policies over the past few years have also helped cushion shocks—India stepped in to buy discounted Russian oil after 2022, expanded refining capacity, blended 20% ethanol in petrol to reduce imports, cut excise duties to soften price spikes, and expanded CNG stations and piped gas connections across the country. All of this means India’s fuel system today is far more diversified, monitored and prepared than it was a decade ago. Despite global uncertainty, supply remains stable and the country is not in the situation some rumours compare it to.

IRANIAN OIL RETURNS TO GLOBAL MARKETS. As America’s strategic oil reserves continue to deplete, the Trump administration has lifted sanctions on Iranian oil, allowing it to re-enter global energy markets. What does the return of Iranian oil mean for the world economy? Will increased supply lower energy costs and provide relief for consumers, or is this primarily a geopolitical calculation by Washington? With energy prices shaping everything from inflation to food costs, the decision could have far-reaching consequences far beyond the Middle East. David Morgan joins us to discuss what this move means for oil markets, the global economy, and everyday consumers.

India’s Next Big Oil Discovery Andaman Basin Sparks Global Interest India may be on the verge of a massive energy breakthrough in the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. In this in-depth report, we explore how the Andaman Sea is fast becoming a frontier of hope for India’s $3.7 trillion economy, with the potential to unlock reserves comparable to those that transformed Guyana. Positioned at the tectonic intersection of major plates and surrounded by proven reserves in Myanmar and Indonesia, the Andaman Basin could reshape India’s path to energy independence. With aggressive drilling led by ONGC and Oil India Limited, one well has already revealed signs of an active petroleum system. But challenges remain, from high costs and deep-sea drilling risks to environmental clearances and global scrutiny. We also look at the wider implications: the booming offshore mining industry, the $9.3 billion Great Nicobar Holistic Development Project, and the environmental concerns that come with rapid industrial expansion in a biodiversity-rich zone.

Under the leadership of PM Sh Narendra Modi Ji, India has built a resilient and diversified energy ecosystem capable of withstanding global uncertainties. Crude oil and natural gas imports have been strategically diversified across multiple regions, significantly reducing dependence on any single supplier. The govt has also demonstrated its ability to rapidly scale up LPG production during previous crises while steadily expanding the piped natural gas network, a long-term strategy that reduces reliance on LPG cylinders and strengthens India's energy security. At the same time, India's domestic oil and gas exploration and production are set to increase further as part of the Modi Government's vision of achieving greater energy self-reliance. With diversified sourcing, expanding domestic production, and a proven ability to respond effectively during periods of disruption, India is well positioned to navigate continued volatility arising from the situation in Iran under the steady leadership of PM Modi Ji.

The success of India’s energy diplomacy under the leadership of PM Sh Narendra Modi Ji bears positive results even as the world is faced with serious geopolitical crises. Our energy imports continue uninterrupted even as supply chains choke. We are able to ensure easy availability of fuel for our citizens even as countries worldwide struggle to make energy ends meet. We are able to do this because India has diversified its import basket to 41 sources from the basket of 27 that existed in 2014. India not only secured its energy needs, but emerged stronger, more resilient, and better prepared for the future. While many countries struggled with shortages and soaring prices, India protected its citizens because we planned ahead, diversified supply chains, strengthened strategic reserves, expanded sourcing options, and took difficult decisions when required. PM Modi Ji’s vision has never been limited to managing crises. His vision is to use every crisis as an opportunity to build the future. India’s ethanol blending programme has grown from approximately 1.5% to the threshold of a 20% blending economy. Flex-fuel technology is creating new opportunities for consumers and farmers. E85-compatible vehicles will provide more fuel choices, lower operating costs, and reduce dependence on imported crude. At the same time, India is positioning itself at the forefront of the global clean-energy transition. Through the National Green Hydrogen Mission, the country is laying the foundation for a new energy ecosystem that can power industries, create jobs, attract investment, and strengthen energy independence.

#WATCH | The war between the United States, Israel and Iran in West Asia continues much like before. While there are reports of diplomacy and talks between the sides, no concrete step towards ending the conflict is visible yet. The war has triggered global concerns over energy security, with its impact being felt across the US, Europe, Asia, and Africa, particularly in crude oil and gas markets. Amid these developments, countries around the world are increasingly worried about their energy stability. There are fears of disruptions in petrol, diesel, gas, electricity, and even fertilisers. In such a situation, several questions arise regarding India’s preparedness. Was India already ready for such a crisis? What steps has the country taken in advance to avoid a shortage of crude oil? What measures have been implemented to reduce dependence on foreign energy sources? What initiatives has India taken to ensure that electricity supply and energy needs do not remain heavily dependent on imported oil and gas? What steps has the government taken to reduce the consumption of petrol and diesel in the transport sector?

Russia is one of the largest crude producers with over 9 million barrels/day. Imagine the chaos if this oil, amounting to about 10% of the global oil supply of around 97 million, vanished from the market. It would have forced the world to reduce its consumption, and since the consumers would be chasing the reduced supplies, the prices would’ve spiralled to over $120-130. Russian oil was never under global sanctions. Sensible decision makers around the world were aware of the realities of global oil supply chains and how India was only helping the global markets by buying discounted oil under a price cap from wherever we could. Some commentators who do not have an understanding of the dynamics of energy markets pass unnecessary judgements on our policies. India, under the leadership of PM Narendra Modi Ji, has been a net positive contributor to global energy price stability, while at the same time we successfully navigated the trilemma of energy availability, affordability and sustainability.

Close to 90% of global shipbuilding today happens in just three countries: China, Japan and South Korea. Close to 81% of Pakistan’s military hardware imports come from a single source: China. In contrast, India’s defence procurement is far more balanced—driven by indigenous manufacturing and other global partnerships. India also has the capacity to emerge as a global manufacturing hub—especially in critical sectors. Under PM Shri Narendra Modi Ji, Bharat is aptly placed to lead this transformation. During my visit to Washington, DC, I spoke with think tank members and young professionals & emphasised how deepening US-India trade and technology ties is an economic imperative & a strategic necessity.

🇺🇸🇨🇳🇮🇷 U.S. Navy blockade on Iranian ports is holding strong, and this hits China the hardest No Iranian oil is flowing out for 48+ hours... and Beijing was sucking up ~90-98% of Iran's crude (over 1.3M barrels/day, ~13% of China's seaborne imports) at steep discounts. Now China’s scrambling: higher global oil prices, disrupted cheap supply, and a direct squeeze on their energy security while they preach "fragile ceasefire." Beijing calls it “dangerous,” but this is leverage: the same regime propping up Iran with shadow fleet tankers and yuan deals is feeling the pain in its own economy. Short-term headache for China’s factories and growth. Long-term reminder that over-reliance on risky partners and shadow trade has limits when the U.S. Navy shows up. Source: Reuters, NY Times
