India's unabated tryst with Russian crude oil is slowly coming to an end

Rediff.com2 May 2023

India's unabated tryst with Russian crude oil is slowly coming to an end.

Shipments from Russia to India have averaged over 1.8 million barrels a day since February, according to data from Paris-based market analytics firm Kpler. But much of the crude shipped to India was non-sanctioned because it traded below a price cap set by the US led G-7 nations in December.
