Supply Shock Hits Hard

QatarEnergy force majeure cuts 30% of India's West Asian gas imports. Petronet LNG, GAIL invoke force majeure. Iran strikes crippled Ras Laffan, 20% global LNG capacity offline

Price Explosion Threatens Economy

Spot LNG jumps to $25/MMBtu vs $10-12 term contracts, 125% premium. Gujarat Gas declares force majeure on industrial supplies. Fertilizer plants face shutdown—subsidy burden could explode billions

Critical Dependence Exposed

India imports 67% of LPG, 50% of natural gas, 90% via Strait of Hormuz. Only 25 days crude stock cover. Qatar, UAE supply 59% of LNG. Single-region concentration = systemic vulnerability

Prioritisation, Not Rationing Yet:
Government prioritises 4 sectors: households, hospitals, fertilizers, city gas. 10,000+ restaurants may shut Tamil Nadu. Commercial LPG cylinders face shortages. Coal plants restart to cover power gap

Wake-Up Call for Transition

Experts: Accelerate renewables NOW, only path to long-term energy security. Diversify LNG sourcing (US, Australia, West Africa). Build strategic reserves. India bets future on 251 GW renewable capacity but immediate crisis forces coal reliance paradox
