GAIL reported a strong Q1 FY24 with consolidated PAT surging 150% YoY to INR 1,793 crore, driven by a sharp recovery in gas marketing spreads, lower inventory losses, and improved transmission tariff realization. Gas transmission volume rose to 116 MMSCMD (up 8% QoQ) and management expects to reach 123 MMSCMD by year-end, with a medium-term target of 138-140 MMSCMD. The petrochemical segment remained under pressure due to weak polymer prices and high gas costs, but losses are expected to narrow as cheaper LNG is sourced. Management maintained its FY24 gas marketing margin guidance of INR 3,500 crore and guided for transmission revenue growth of 6-7%. Key risks include further reduction in APM gas allocation for compressors and delayed tariff revision from PNGRB.
