India thought Iran will not retaliate. It voted against Iran in IAEA resolution to allow referral to UN Security Council. Iran has retaliated. It cancelled all gas sale to India.

Iran has scrapped a natural gas export deal with India after New Delhi voted in favor of a UN atomic agency resolution putting Tehran on notice over its nuclear program, a newspaper reported on Wednesday.

Under a deal signed in June, India planned to import 5 million tons of liquefied natural gas annually for 25 years with deliveries from Iran starting in 2009.

Iran's decision to cancel the deal was conveyed to India's permanent representative at the International Atomic Energy Agency by Iran's ambassador in Vienna, Austria.

It followed India's decision to join the US, Britain, France, Germany and other nations in backing a resolution calling on the agency to consider reporting Iran to the UN Security Council for not complying with the nuclear non-proliferation treaty.
