Direct imports to India from Iran were 433,000 barrels per day (bpd) in the first quarter, compared with 256,000 bpd to China, according to data compiled by Geneva\'s Petrologistics and seen by Reuters via an industry source. The Indian import figure was up by around 23 percent from the 351,0000 bpd imported over the same period of 2011 and significantly above the its 2011 average of 326,000 bpd. The Petrologistics figures, however, reinforce indications that India has stepped up imports.
