ONGC Ltd reported -8.38% fall in gross revenues for the Dec-20 quarter on consolidated basis at Rs100,289cr. The overall volumes took a hit due to lower crude oil prices which is used to translate earnings into value terms. While the Brent crude has now picked up above $61/bbl, the average price in the Dec-20 quarter was much lower. The offshore and the onshore business took a sharp hit in the quarter.
For the Dec-20 quarter, the consolidated operating profits were down -41.5% at Rs4,785cr. While the positive feature was the sharp fall in raw material input costs, this was more than compensated by higher statutory levies and higher exploration related impairment write-offs in the quarter. As a result, OPM tapered sharply from 7.47% in Dec-19 quarter to 4.77% in Dec-20 quarter.
The consolidated Profit after tax (PAT) for the Dec-20 quarter was sharply down -46.91% at Rs2,643cr as the operating pressures took its toll on the company’s operating performance. PAT margins also fell very sharply from 4.55% in the Dec-19 quarter to 2.64% in the Dec-20 quarter.
