FISCAL YEAR
Source:ppca.org
In India 90 % of LPG is used as a domestic fuel for cooking and hence Indian
imports are driven by residential consumption
The sudden rise of Indian LPG imports can be attributed to a government subsidy
scheme launched in May 2016
India was expected to import approximately 11.9 Million MT in the fiscal year
2017-18 but however fell short by about half a million tons due lower than
expected consumptions.
Currently India relies solely on OPEC for their LPG supply. At a very nascent stage
other alternatives are being looked at, with US shale gas being on top of the list
With the Elections right around the corner the boost for energy has already been
planned and most of the charterers have taken t/c positions accordingly
