New Delhi, November 17, 2025: India has signed a historic LPG import agreement with the United States, marking its first major deal to source around 10% of its liquefied petroleum gas needs from America. The agreement comes amid ongoing concerns over potential US tariffs on energy shipments.
The deal is expected to significantly boost India’s energy security, providing a stable and diversified supply of LPG for domestic consumption. It follows a similar initiative involving jet fuel shipments to the US West Coast, signaling closer energy trade ties between the two countries.
Industry analysts highlight that sourcing LPG from the US not only mitigates supply risks but also positions India to better manage global market volatility and domestic demand. Officials emphasize that the agreement reflects India’s commitment to securing long-term energy partnerships while navigating trade challenges.
