NEW DELHI/MOSCOW:
The 10-year agreement amounts to 0.5% of global supply and is worth roughly $13 billion a year at today's prices. It would further cement energy relations between India and Russia, which is under heavy Western sanctions over its invasion of Ukraine.
Rosneft did not reply to requests for comments. Reliance said it works with international suppliers, including from Russia, and deals are based on market conditions. The company declined further comment on commercial matters, citing the confidentiality of supply agreements.
The deal comes ahead of the planned visit by Russian President Vladimir Putin to India and after US President-elect Donald Trump said he wants to push Moscow and Kyiv to stop the war as soon as he takes office in January.
