GAIL India Reports Nearly Doubled Q1 Profit Amid Share Price Decline
GAIL India reported a near doubling of its Q1 FY27 consolidated net profit to Rs 4,665 crore, driven by strong performance in natural gas trading and liquid hydrocarbon segments. Despite this, its shares fell about 5%, trading near Rs 172. Analysts from JM Financial and Motilal Oswal attributed the earnings beat partly to one-off gains and higher other income, maintaining 'Buy' ratings with target prices around Rs 206-210. The company’s revenue and EBITDA also showed significant year-on-year and quarter-on-quarter growth, supported by ongoing capital expenditure aligned with its growth strategy.
