Indian Oil Corporation has purchased 1 million barrels of crude oil from Abu Dhabi National Oil Company. He has paid it in rupees.

The Indian government has taken steps to give global recognition to the rupee. The Indian Oil Corporation has purchased 10 lakh barrels of crude oil from Abu Dhabi National Oil Company. He paid for this purchase in rupees. Let us tell you that to meet the oil requirements in India, more than 85 per cent has to be imported.
For the first time, payment for the purchase of crude oil has been made in rupees. This is a historic step. After this, the use of Indian national currency will be promoted. Earlier, dollars were used to pay for the purchase of crude oil. In July 2023, India and Abu Dhabi National Oil Company signed an agreement for payment in rupees for the purchase of crude oil. After this historic decision, Rupee will get global recognition.
After this move of India, the dollar's dominance in the global economy was reduced. India uses dollars for trade. In such a situation, emphasis will be placed on the maximum use of local currency after this payment. According to a media report, Russian oil purchases will also be paid in rupees. There has been no official confirmation of this yet.
