India has increased its liquefied natural gas imports from the US, Oman, and Nigeria significantly since the Iran war. The country now imports about 68% of its LNG from these suppliers, compared to just 25% last year. Qatar's contribution has dropped to 3% from 45%, highlighting a major shift in sourcing strategies. Domestic gas consumption has remained steady, driven by the expanding city gas sector.
