The net profit saw a sequential rise of 179%, reaching Rs 6.04 billion. This increase was primarily attributed to higher gas marketing and transmission volumes, as well as an improved transmission tariff realization.

In the latest quarter, the volume of natural gas transmission grew by 7 per cent to 116.33 MMSCMD in Q1, as compared to 108.23 MMSCMD in Q4 FY23.
However, the marketing of natural gas, which constitutes 96 per cent of the company's overall revenue, decreased by 18% to Rs 283.81 billion. Gas marketing volume increased slightly by 2%, reaching 98.84 MMSCMD against 96.46 MMSCMD in the previous quarter. On the other hand, liquid hydrocarbon sales witnessed a growth of 7 per cent, amounting to 247,000 tonnes, as compared to 230,000 tonnes in the previous quarter.
