India has lifted the emergency natural gas supply controls it had put in place, according to the Economic Times. Those controls had been introduced to secure energy supply during the Middle East crisis.

The report said shipments of liquefied natural gas (LNG) through the Strait of Hormuz have begun to normalise. The strait is a critical transit point for global energy trade.

Lifting the controls signals an easing in India's energy-supply conditions. The course of regional tensions and the stability of LNG flows will be watched closely in the period ahead.
