Oil India Ltd. reported revenue of ₹7,929 cr for April to June 2025, −2.4% on the year and −10.0% on the quarter. Over the last four quarters revenue comes to ₹32,321 cr, −6.0% on the four before.
Operating profit (EBITDA) was ₹2,351 cr, a margin of 29.7%, −904 bps on the year and +27 bps on the quarter. Over the last 8 quarters the margin has ranged from 29.4% to 46.3%, averaging 35.1%. Operating costs grew +12.1%, faster than revenue at −2.4%, so operating profit grew less than sales.
Net profit was ₹2,047 cr, +1.5% on the year and +36.7% on the quarter, with earnings per share of ₹11.66. Profit before other income, one-offs and tax fell 35.0%, so 37 points of the headline growth came from outside the core business. The tax rate was 18% against an average of 22% over the previous 8 quarters, which lifted profit this quarter. Profit over the last four quarters totals ₹7,070 cr, −6.9% 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 ₹40.34 over the last four quarters, the stock at ₹441.50 trades at 10.9 times trailing earnings.
Written from the quarterly statements. The filing read adds the balance sheet and cash flow, the auditor's review, segment results, one-off items line by line and what management said on the call.
