    Hi Varun,

    Take note that it is a common misconception that the “NAT was present already” simply because the Lambda function is working properly.

    Please refer to the AWS documentation below:

    By default, Lambda runs your functions in a secure VPC with access to AWS services and the internet. The VPC is owned by Lambda and does not connect to your account’s default VPC. When you connect a function to a VPC in your account, it does not have access to the internet unless your VPC provides access.


    Reference:

    https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/configuration-vpc.html#vpc-internet
