HPCL’s first quarter underscored the operating leverage embedded in the system. Consolidated PAT surged 548% to ₹4,111 crore as refineries ran hard and marketing volumes broadened. Quarterly throughput hit a record 6.66 MMT (+15.6%) and sales volumes reached 13.04 MMT. Visakh (111%) and Mumbai (106%) operated above nameplate; retail and aviation demand held up with petrol at 2.62 MMT (+5.4%), CNG at 310 TMT (+22.1%), and ATF at 291 TMT (+11.4%). Commissioning of the Chhara LNG regasification terminal adds flexibility to the gas‑side portfolio, providing a hedge as the transport and industrial segments evolve.
