View:  
Oil refining giant Bharat Petroleum Corp. Ltd. reported weak operational performance annually in Q2FY25 due to lower marketing margins and adverse weather conditions impacting agricultural demand. The average gross refining margin (GRM) fell to $6.12/barrel in H1FY25, down from $15.42/barrel in the same period last year. While improved marketing margins and a rebound in GRM could enhance future performance. With a decline in fuel consumption and falling global crude oil prices, we will closely monitor any government actions that could affect the company's financial performance in the short to medium term.
