It was just a few months ago that the trade between Russia and India touched $49 billion (Rs 408,219 crore) much ahead of the earlier target of reaching the milestone of $25 billion (Rs 208,275 crore) by 2025 and $30 billion (Rs 249,930 crore) by 2030.
It is important to note that almost $40 billion (Rs 333,240 crore) consisted of trade for crude oil and fertilizer trade between the two nations. But Russia is eyeing a bigger trade with India, that not only expands existing supplies but also newer areas of cooperation.
