On 17 November 2025, the Indian government and its oil‐public sector companies inked a structured agreement to import 2.2 million tonnes of liquified petroleum gas (LPG) from the United States in 2026, which equates to approximately 10 percent of India’s annual LPG import requirement. The deal aims to diversify supply sources and reduce dependence on West Asia amid energy-security concerns. Analysts said this agreement supports downstream capacity planning, brown-field expansions, and could moderate consumer cylinder pricing if global feedstock remains stable. Market watchers will keep an eye on shipping logistics and rupee movement in relation to this deal.
