Indraprastha Gas Ltd. reported revenue of ₹4,023 cr for July to September 2025, +8.8% on the year and +2.8% on the quarter. It is the highest quarterly revenue in the last 10 quarters on record. Over the last four quarters revenue comes to ₹15,644 cr, +8.9% on the four before.
Operating profit (EBITDA) was ₹441 cr, a margin of 11.0%, −351 bps on the year and −209 bps on the quarter. Over the last 8 quarters the margin has ranged from 9.6% to 16.4%, averaging 13.4%. Operating costs grew +13.2%, faster than revenue at +8.8%, so operating profit grew less than sales.
Net profit was ₹385 cr, −15.2% on the year and −10.0% on the quarter, with earnings per share of ₹2.76. Profit before other income, one-offs and tax fell 25.1%, so 10 points of the headline growth came from outside the core business. The tax rate of 21% is in line with its recent average. Profit over the last four quarters totals ₹1,591 cr, −13.6% on the four before.
Refining and marketing profits swing with crude and product margins, and inventory gains or losses can move a single quarter sharply. The quarterly statements do not carry refining margins, throughput and inventory gains or losses; those come with the filing read.
On earnings per share of ₹11.40 over the last four quarters, the stock at ₹143.15 trades at 12.6 times trailing earnings.
Written from the quarterly statements. The filing read adds the balance sheet and cash flow filed with this quarter, the auditor's review, segment results, one-off items line by line and what management said on the call.
