The government has assured that there are no payment hurdles for the new Iranian imports, which are intended to diversify sourcing amid regional supply disruptions.

However, the weakening rupee and soaring crude prices above $100 are driving record outflows from foreign investors in Indian stocks.

The situation remains critical as India balances its energy security with the economic fallout of the Middle East war.
