Government Support to OMCs - Union Cabinet approved a ₹30,000 crore compensation package for IOCL, BPCL, and HPCL in August 2025. - The package is disbursed over 12 installments to cover under-recoveries on regulated domestic LPG sales. Market Implications - Commercial users (hotels, restaurants, MSMEs) gain from lower input costs. - OMC margins remain under pressure, though compensation mitigates near-term losses. - Stock watchers will balance margin compression against government support when evaluating IOCL, BPCL, and HPCL shares.
