India has a blocked currency.
When it buys oil from Russians those Russians get rupees which can only be used to buy Indian stuff.
Excluding probably generic drugs, India only makes a few things Russia doesn’t make for itself - such as cashews, Basmati rice, and some spices.
India does make CNC machine tools, and towels, bed linens, cast iron pipe fittings, etc.
At this point, what India could provide Russia won’t change the course of the war as Russia has almost certainly loaded up on machine tools.
Someone has suggested that Trump should ask India not to sell outside of India refinery products of Russian source crude oil.
