The Iran war is causing global disruption, threatening India's supply of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), most of which is imported and is threatened by disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz. The Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas has directed oil refineries to prioritise LPG supply to 330 million households and over 3 million businesses that use commercial LPG cylinders. This is causing a "crisis situation" that will result in the closure of many restaurants. The National Restaurant Association of India (NRAI) represents over 500,000 restaurants across India, which generates an annual turnover of over 5.7 trillion rupees ($78.9 billion) and employs over 8 million people.
