India's economy demonstrates remarkable resilience amid global oil market turmoil, with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) projecting a GDP growth of 6.5%. This stability is attributed to strong domestic demand and effective governance, particularly in energy management. Despite geopolitical tensions and rising crude prices—Brent crude peaked at approximately $126 per barrel—India has kept fuel prices unchanged, unlike many other countries where prices have surged by 70-300%. The country has successfully integrated 23% renewable energy into its grid, ensuring that peak power demand of over 256GW is met while maintaining LPG supplies to 33.5 crore households. The Indian government has implemented measures such as a temporary export levy on diesel and a reduction in petrol excise duty to cushion consumers from the impact of rising global prices. As a result, India stands out as the 5th largest refiner and 3rd largest consumer of oil products, showcasing its strategic energy policies and commitment to self-reliance.
