What is Nayara, the Indian company exporting oil to Russia?

Nayara Energy, an Indian oil firm, has reportedly sold around 60,000 metric tonnes of petrol to Russia amid ongoing Ukrainian attacks on Russian oil facilities, which have led to a fuel crisis in the country. While Nayara has not confirmed the sale, Indian Oil Minister Hardeep Singh Puri noted that it is possible that Russian entities acquired Indian fuel through traders. The fuel crisis in Russia has resulted in rationing and significant fuel shortages, with over 50 attacks on oil infrastructure reported since March.
