The direct brunt of which is being paid to the Indian consumers because 70% of the total consumption of edible oil in the country has to be imported.

Between 15th March to 3rd March, there has been an increase of 10%-30% in oil prices between February 15 to March 5, he said. And the possibility of a further increase in this cannot be ruled out. Apart from this, about 30% of wheat and 20% of maize are imported from Russia-Ukraine worldwide. At an overall level, Russia, Ukraine, and Belarus contribute 10-12 percent of India's total fertilizer imports. The possibility of an increase in their prices due to war has also increased.

Defense equipment, machinery, games, and jewelry are also imported from Russia. But now their prices may increase. While India exports pharmaceuticals, and tea to Russia and Ukraine. India's exports may also be affected in the near future.
