India's 9-10-day crude reserves and nearly half of gas imported
A new report says India has just nine to 10 days' worth of crude oil reserves, pretty risky for a country that runs on imported energy.
If global supplies get disrupted, things could get tricky fast.
The report also points out that nearly half of India's natural gas comes from imports, making the country even more dependent on what's happening outside its borders.
Experts urge India to build reserves
India doesn't have special storage for natural gas either, so if there's a supply crisis, there aren't many backup options.
Experts are urging the government to build up both oil and gas reserves to keep the lights on and protect the economy from global price swings or political drama.
Basically, it's a wake-up call to boost our energy safety net amid India's high energy demand.
