On May 23, it was reported that India, the world's third-largest consumer of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), is currently facing an LPG supply gap of approximately 400,000 barrels per day (compared to pre-war levels), with domestic production unable to compensate for the decline in imports caused by the war with Iran. Data from energy data analytics firm Kpler shows that India's LPG imports in April were 377,620 barrels per day, less than half of the 851,870 barrels per day imported in February. In April, India's domestic production increased to 530,000 barrels per day, an increase of approximately 75,000 barrels per day from the previous month. Sumit Ritolia, chief refining and supply analyst at Kpler, stated that the situation is more serious because India's domestic LPG production is nearing full capacity, meaning that the supply gap could persist as long as imports do not fully recover. A black market seller stated, "Due to soaring costs, we noticed a slight slowdown in customer demand in April. But people have no choice, as switching to other fuels is not easy."
