Gujarat Gas reported Q3 FY26 revenue of ₹4,865 crore (+12% YoY) and EBITDA of ₹502 crore (+14% YoY), driven by strong CNG growth (11% YoY) and steady non-Morbi industrial volumes. However, Morbi industrial volumes collapsed 50% YoY to 1.68 MMSCMD due to propane price advantage, partially offset by a price cut of ₹4.50/SCM effective January 1. EBITDA margin per SCM improved to ₹6.52 (vs ₹5.04 YoY). Management guided for Morbi volumes to recover to 3.0-3.2 MMSCMD by March, aided by rising propane prices and spot LNG moderation. Full-year capex guidance maintained at ₹650-700 crore. Key risk: sustained propane price advantage could delay Morbi volume recovery, pressuring margins.
गुजरात गैस ने वित्त वर्ष 2026 की तीसरी तिमाही में 4,865 करोड़ रुपये का कारोबार किया, जो पिछले साल से 12% ज्यादा है। कंपनी की कमाई (EBITDA) 502 करोड़ रुपये रही, जो 14% बढ़ी। इसकी वजह CNG की बिक्री में 11% का उछाल और मोरबी के बाहर औद्योगिक गैस की मांग स्थिर रहना है। लेकिन मोरबी में औद्योगिक गैस की बिक्री 50% गिरकर 1.68 MMSCMD रह गई, क्योंकि प्रोपेन सस्ता होने से ग्राहकों ने गैस छोड़ दी। इसकी भरपाई के लिए कंपनी ने 1 जनवरी से गैस की कीमत 4.50 रुपये प्रति SCM घटा दी। हर SCM पर कमाई बढ़कर 6.52 रुपये (पिछले साल 5.04 रुपये) हो गई। कंपनी को उम्मीद है कि मार्च तक मोरबी में गैस की बिक्री 3.0-3.2 MMSCMD तक पहुंच जाएगी, क्योंकि प्रोपेन महंगा हो रहा है और LNG सस्ती हो रही है। पूरे साल का निवेश लक्ष्य 650-700 करोड़ रुपये रखा गया है। खतरा: अगर प्रोपेन सस्ता रहा, तो मोरबी में गैस की बिक्री उबरने में देर हो सकती है और मुनाफा कम हो सकता है।
