\"India<\/div>\n
India<\/a> is prepared to take adequate steps to mitigate any impact of the Iran-Israel conflict<\/a> on its economy<\/a> and will “remain alert”, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman<\/a> said on Thursday. “Can’t say that we are fully ready. As developments unfold, we are preparing to take adequate steps in India’s interests,” Sitharaman<\/a> told the CNBC Awaaz news channel in an interview.<\/p>\n

The conflict has not yet significantly impacted global oil prices<\/a>.<\/p>\n

However, any escalation of tension in the oil-rich middle east could raise India’s oil import<\/a> bill. India is the world’s third biggest oil importer, and ships in about 85% of its oil needs from overseas.<\/p>\n

Sitharaman said India started importing oil from Russia to cushion the country from higher prices after sanctions were imposed by Western countries.<\/p>\n

“Similarly in every challenge, we decide to take steps in India’s interest after discussions with government departments. And definitely we will remain alert,” she said. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
