Remember how Nazi Germany was initially supported by US and UK as bulwark against Soviet Union. But Germany was so arrogant about its power that it started fights with both.

India has a similar fascist government in power and its public is similarly delusional about its power. There is a chance India picks fights with both US and China and they jointly take India out of equation as a nuisence.
The indians DO love Hitler and modi /BJP/RSS(look it up on 'net -there's lots) do model themselves after Hitler Youth ,Brown Shirts(although indians are probably "brown pants",I knew an older indian guy -50's-some years ago who was in the RSS and stuff and they love Hitler,marching,singing, cross-chest salute etc etc .But whereas Nazi Germany had grievances and arrogance based on actual discipline and societal, /technological advanced competence-indias does not in any aspect-just an arrogant,pompous,boastful,fraudulent poseur.

India doesn't need that much oil anyway. It mainly imports oil for its refineries and then sells the derivatives. Without Russian oil, these refineries will simply close down.
What percentage of this low cost oil has been powering the India economy?
40% is 40%, that is not a small amount. If is high then 25% tariffs on the relative small India manufacturing sector is not a high price to pay given then most countries around the world are being tariffed by the US.

Good riddance. Russia probably has enough of those worthless Rupees to last them a decade.
The Rosneft refinery in India will likely continue to operate with Russian oil. The rest don't want to be sanctioned.
If true this just shows how weak India is economically, politically, and its dependence on the West.

For whatever reason the West thinks by hurting exports they will crush the Russian economy, but the Russians have been working on reducing their overall imports for over a decade at this point. And India provides few if any critical imports.

India is indeed a fascist state right now. But they are much more comparable to Fascist Italy than Nazi Germany. Fascist Italy in WWII was only good at bullying Ethiopia. Italy joined late in the Battle of France late and got their asses kicked before the French finally surrendered. Then Italy attacked British colonial territorials on North Africa and got their asses kicked badly. So badly that the Germans had to sent in the Afrika Korps to fight for them. Then when the British and Americans invaded Italy, they got their asses kicked once again. The Germans had to send forces from the Eastern Front to hold the line and occupy Northern Italy to prevent the fascists from totally being wiped out.

India is showing the same patterns right now. They have a fascist government with power delusions. But are totally inept at nation building and warfare. Like Italy at the start of WWII, their military on paper appears decent. Worse than Italy, India is a net importer of military equipment. Then when it comes to actual warfare, the Indian military is only good at bullying weak militaries. When faced against a decent military, they suffer humiliating defeats. Yet they still have the shamelessness to brag about being a peer with the world's top militaries.

Germany was never supported by the US and the UK. There may have been pro-Nazi movements among the populations of US/UK, but the US/UK ruling class would never support Germany.

From the perspective of the US/UK, Germany and the USSR were equal threats - neither power could be allowed to control both Germany and Russia (along with Eastern Europe). US/UK grand strategy from the start has always been for Germany/USSR to exhaust each other before stepping in and preventing the victor from being too powerful. From the perspective of Hitler, the USSR was the immediate threat but the Anglo financial capitalists were to be the final and greater threat. From the perspective of Stalin, Germany was the immediate threat but the Anglo financial capitalists were also the final and greater threat.
