Hardeep Singh Puri says India will play market card, to buy oil from wherever it gets cheaper

India, the world’s third-largest energy consumer, will buy oil from wherever it can get on a predictable and sound basis, Oil Minister Hardeep Singh Puri said on Monday emphasising the country will play its market card. India shunned western pressures to raise imports from Russia in last year. Russia, whose oil is available at discount due to some western nations slapping sanctions, is now India’s top oil supplier.
