ONGC Q3 results FY26 performance

ONGC reported a 1.6 per cent increase in net profit for the December quarter, aided by higher realisations from new wells and reduced statutory levies, which offset the impact of lower crude oil prices.

The company reported a standalone net profit of Rs 8,372 crore for October-December quarter of 2025-26 financial year, compared with Rs 8,240 crore earning in the same period a year back, according to a company statement.

India's top producer of crude oil - the key feedstock for fuels such as petrol and diesel - and natural gas, used for power generation, fertiliser production, and conversion into CNG and cooking gas, realised over 10 per cent lower earnings on every barrel of crude produced. Natural gas revenues, however, rose.

Shares of ONGC on Friday ended at Rs 299.45 , down Rs 1.35 or 0.45 per cent from the previous close of Rs 300.80, on the BSE.
