What the record says.
Adani Total Gas delivered 27% revenue growth to INR 1,910 crore in Q1 FY27, driven by 13% volume growth (303 MMSCM) with CNG up 18% YoY. However, EBITDA margin compressed to approximately 14.7% due to elevated spot LNG procurement (~15% of volumes) following the withdrawal of the pool gas mechanism and geopolitical-driven price spikes in West Asia. The APM allocation covers only ~40% of requirements versus higher historical levels. Management cited US/Qatar supply additions post-Middle East crisis resolution as the key margin recovery catalyst, while pursuing mid-term LNG contracts to reduce spot exposure. Customer additions remained strong at 38,000 domestic connections and 448 commercial/industrial customers (2-3x YoY). The EV charging network expanded to 536 points with 100% YoY growth toward a 10,000-point target. Joint venture IOAGPL operates across 53 GAs covering 14% of India's population. The primary risk is sustained margin pressure if geopolitical conditions persist, alongside INR depreciation amplifying input cost inflation.

Guidance to track
- Management expects continued volume growth in similar manner as Q1, with all infrastructure (CNG, PNG, industrial) expanding to maintain momentum. No specific quarterly revenue guidance provided.
- Target of 10,000 EV charging points with continued focus on improving network utilization and operational efficiency, up from current 536 points.
- Margin improvement expected once Middle East geopolitical crisis resolves, as US and Qatar supply additions will bring more competitive LNG pricing. Mid-term contracts being pursued to bridge current spot exposure.
Risks flagged
- Operating margins have compressed from ~25% to ~15% over 6-8 quarters due to spot LNG purchases (now ~15% of volumes) and reduced APM allocation (~40%). Recovery timeline is uncertain and tied to geopolitical resolution.
- Government's sudden withdrawal of pool gas mechanism has forced higher spot procurement at elevated prices. Industry representations are ongoing, but timing of potential restoration remains uncertain.
- Brent crude rally to $10+/barrel during Middle East tensions has increased NWG prices (12% of Indian crude basket), directly impacting gas sourcing costs by approximately Rs 5/SCM.
- PNG connection scaling faces headwinds from limited technical personnel availability. Industry-wide training programs and government skill development initiatives are being developed to address this structural constraint.
Key quotes
- One of the major reasons for these compressed margins is on the gas availability on market driven prices and second is APM allocation. We see that once this crisis in the Middle East is over, we see a lot of supply coming in from US and Qatar region, which will help us get better rates.
- The curtailment would not continue indefinitely. The volumes which are curtailed would come up, which would reduce spot purchases and help us improve margins.
- We have slightly higher capex budget compared to last year but we are monitoring the situation in end-to-end patches in terms of gas supply scenarios and areas where growth is very evident.
