India has resumed importing liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) from Iran for the first time in several years, despite ongoing tensions in the Strait of Hormuz. According to Reuters, the shipment became possible after the United States temporarily eased sanctions on Iranian oil and energy exports. The sanctioned tanker named 'Aurora', carrying Iranian LPG, is expected to arrive soon at Mangalore port on India’s western coast. The cargo will be distributed among three state-owned energy companies: Indian Oil Corporation, Bharat Petroleum Corporation, and Hindustan Petroleum Corporation.
India had halted energy imports from Iran in 2019 due to pressure from Western sanctions. The renewed trade comes as energy transport through the Hormuz Strait has been disrupted following the outbreak of war between the United States, Israel, and Iran, leaving India among the most affected countries.
The development highlights India’s efforts to secure energy supplies amid regional instability and fluctuating global sanctions policies.
