The US Treasury clears four Indian entities and removes them from the sanctions list
The US Treasury has removed four Indian entities from the list of Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) as part of its latest sanctions update.
The entities delisted are Hyderabad-based RRG Engineering Technologies Private Limited, Lokesh Machines Limited, Ahmedabad-based Galaxy Bearings Ltd, and Delhi-based Shaurya Aeronautics Private Limited.
All four were previously designated under Executive Order 14024, which targets Russia-linked activities. The removals were announced alongside a broader update to the SDN list that included the addition of several individuals and entities associated with drug trafficking networks in Mexico.
The Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) said in a statement that it issued its quarterly report on licensing activities conducted under the Trade Sanctions Reform and Export Enhancement Act (TSRA) for the period from January to March 2026.
OFAC also announced that it had “updated the list of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons,” a move that included adding and removing entities and individuals from the sanctions registry.
