Washington: The US has imposed sanctions on two Mumbai-based firms and five Indian nationals associated with them over allegations of being involved in the trade of petroleum products from Iran.<\/p>\n

The US Department of State action targeted SSPL Solutions Private Limited and Samudra Marine Services Private Limited for facilitating the import of petroleum products from Iran.<\/p>\n

Two people associated with SSPL Solutions \u2013 Dhwani and Nisarg Vora, and three people related to Samudra Marine Services \u2013 Ketan Kochikar, Bhupendrasingh Sahu and Harishyam Hariharan Chundakattil — have also been blocked from performing any transactions related to their respective firms.<\/p>\n

The action against the Indian entities and individuals is part of the US crackdown against Iran under Operation Economic Outcast.<\/p>\n

“The Department of State is sanctioning 10 entities, six individuals, and five vessels in connection with trade in Iranian-origin petroleum, petroleum products, and petrochemical products,” an official statement said.<\/p>\n

India’s retail inflation may rise to 5.47 percent in September as food prices climb: UBI’<\/p>\n

The State Department said these entities channelled millions of dollars to the Iranian regime, bolstering one of its most critical revenue streams and enabling its continued illicit conduct.<\/p>\n

“The US government is imposing sanctions on both the buyers and sellers driving this trade in Iranian petrochemical products,” the department said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
