INTRODUCTION
The world consumes about 76 millions barrels per day of oil and OPEC accounts
for nearly 60% of world’s proven oil reserves & its exports represent 55% of the
oil traded internationally.
India ranks among the top 10 largest oil consuming countries. India’s oil reserves
are deficient and it imports nearly 70% of its total oil consumption from the OPEC
countries.
The 1973 oil crises began in October 1973 when the member of the Organization of Arab
petroleum Exporting Countries, proclaimed an oil embargo.
By the end of the embargo in March 1974, the price of oil had risen
from $3 per barrel to nearly $12.

Macroeconomic Effects
The price of oil products increase 400%: from $2.59 to $11.65 a barrel.
The quadruple increase in oil price lead to inflation in consuming countries.
Western nations’ central banks decided to sharply cut interest rates to
encourage growth.
This leads to searching for renewable sources of fuel.

• India ranks among the top 10 largest oil- consuming countries
Oil crisis affects India’s economy
• Oil accounts for about 30% of India's total energy consumption
• Now India imports about 70% of its total oil consumption and
makes no exports.
• This naturally would create a supply deficit, as domestic oil
production is unlikely to keep pace with demand.
• An IMF report says that among the oil importing countries, the largest impact
on GDP growth and the balance of payments is expected to be felt in India,
Korea, Pakistan, Philippines, Thailand, and Turkey

Balance of Payments due to oil imports
• Although the entire burden of the spike in price has not been passed to the
domestic consumer, the Indian government's finances have taken a
sufficient hit, affecting the macroeconomic outlook in India.
• India, as a result, will experience deterioration in its balance of
payments, putting downward pressure on exchange rates
• Ultimately, imports would become more expensive and exports less
valuable, leading to a drop in real national income.
