Fueling the Future: Unlocking Investment Opportunities in India's Thriving Refining Sector.
India, as the second-largest refiner in Asia, has firmly positioned itself as a global powerhouse in oil processing. With an extensive refining capacity of approximately 249 million tonnes per year, equivalent to around 5 million barrels per day, the nation is poised for further growth. Presently, India boasts 23 operational refineries with a combined refining capacity of 249.22 million metric tons per annum. As we look to the horizon, this capacity is expected to surge by an impressive 79%, reaching a staggering 439 million metric tons per annum by 2030. Explore the myriad investment possibilities in India's refining sector, driven by a welcoming 49% FDI policy through the automatic route, and witness how India's state refiners are set to invest USD 26.96 billion to elevate oil refining capacity by 20% in Asia's third-largest economy by 2025.
