Result Update: Oil India | Earnings Miss On Higher Opex; Despite Better Crude Volume And Realisation

“Oil India’s 4QFY25 standalone EBITDA at INR 21.3bn was lower than JMFe/consensus of INR 24.8bn/ INR 22.7bn due to: a) higher other expense at INR 8.4bn (vs JMFe and historical average run-rate of ~INR 5bn); b) higher contract cost at INR 6.1bn (vs JMFe of INR 4.8bn and INR 5.1bn in 3QFY25). This is despite crude sales volume was 4% above JMFe (though production in-line) and crude realisation also tad higher. NRL’s 4QFY25 GRM was strong at USD 9.3/bbl (before excise duty benefit), resulted in significantly higher EBITDA at INR 10bn. Consolidated EBITDA was also lower at INR 28.6bn in 4QFY25 (vs INR 28.1bn in 3QFY25) despite higher EBITDA from NRL. Consolidated FY25 EPS is INR 40.3/share. We maintain BUY (unchanged TP of INR 500) based on our Brent crude price assumption of USD 70/bbl (while CMP is discounting ~USD 60/bbl of net crude realisation). Further, Oil India’s earnings is likely to grow at a robust ~16% CAGR over the next 3-5 years driven by: a) sharp 20-30% output growth in next 2-3 years aided by commissioning of Indradhanush gas pipeline; and b) expansion of NRL refinery from 3mmtpa to 9mmtpa. At CMP, Oil India trades at 6.3x FY27E EPS and 1.1x FY27E BV,” said Dayanand Mittal of JM Financial Institutional Securities Limited.

Nifty Outlook Today By Anand James, Chief Market Strategist, Geojit Investments Limited.

The bounce back evolved on anticipated lines yesterday, but with no follow through momentum. The rejection trades that restrained Nifty from clearing previous day's peak, ended up forming a green hammer, suggesting that the trend is still evenly poised. Only about 14% stocks from the Nifty 500 universe closed below previous day's low, while 80% of the constituents closed above their respective 10day SMA, retaining upside hopes. With this in backdrop, Nifty is expected to consolidate within 24677-950 initially with 24060-25235 as the larger band. Break out momentum appears low though.

Market Outlook Today By Dr. VK Vijayakumar, Chief Investment Strategist, Geojit Investments Limited.

There is slight risk off in global markets. This is evident from the strength in alternate assets like gold and Bitcoin. The fundamental issue is the high fiscal deficit of the US which the market feels is unsustainable. The weak US 20-year bond auction and the spike in yields of 5-year, 10-year and 30-year bonds indicate the declining confidence in US bonds. In Japan, too, bond yields are rising. Rising US bond yields are usually negative for emerging markets. But the situation is slightly different now. The root cause of the problem is the unsustainable US fiscal deficit and debt. This may trigger some capital flows away from the US to other economies where prospects for growth and earnings are better. An important trend from the market perspective is that companies driven by domestic consumption are doing well. The Q4 results of Interglobe aviation and Bharti Airtel are good examples of this trend. This trend can sustain.
