Security and sanction concerns will never make that happen

Here is an article which touches upon the emerging trade potential of Central and South Asia > Strategic dynamics of Gwadar and IP
(The author is downplaying the potential of Pak-Iran differences specifically when it comes to Afghanistan but he is spot on about the trade potential) In this scenario why the heck should we involve India? *Most of the benefits you mention will still be there *if Pk buys from Iran and sells to India on nominal profit.
India did not join IPI gas line because in return of not joining this and some other reasons, India was to get the Nuclear Deal. India was to join the NSG. The Quid Pro Quo was favourable to India. It was not simply about stopping in front of American pressure. India has never let go of its interests in front of any American pressure.
And I highly doubt that India would join IP gas pipeline now because while India is in NSG, it is still not in the Wasenaar Group. India wants to join this as well and US is the only one who can make this happen.
Lastly, LoveIcon is right. If India joins this pipeline, it would be most helpful to Pakistan and Iran. If India joins, not only would Pakistan get transit payment, it would make Pakistan immune to sanction as sanctioning India is very very hard.
You are correct that Nuclear deal was not directly linked with IPI but India's involvement in IP is not in Pk's interest.
