The ongoing crisis in Venezuela is creating concern for India, mainly because Indian companies have invested heavily in that country. Venezuela holds some of the world’s largest oil reserves, and it plays an important role in meeting India’s energy needs.
Several Indian public and private companies are involved in Venezuela’s oil and gas sector. Indian refineries are well equipped to process Venezuela’s heavy crude oil, which has helped India reduce dependence on other costly sources. If political instability and international sanctions continue, oil supplies could be disrupted, leading to higher import costs and pressure on fuel prices in India.
Apart from oil, Indian companies are also active in metals and infrastructure projects in Venezuela. Any slowdown or shutdown of these projects could result in financial losses and stalled operations.
The pharmaceutical sector is another area of concern. Indian drug companies supply affordable medicines to Venezuela and also manufacture locally. Economic instability could affect payments, production and future expansion plans.
While Venezuela remains important for India as an alternative energy partner, the present situation adds uncertainty. The crisis may force India to reassess risks, diversify sources and adopt a more cautious approach in overseas investments.
