✦ AI-Generated from Full Transcript

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.
