GAIL Q1 FY26 – Sales Flat, Profits Under Pressure 🔻

GAIL (India) delivered a muted performance in Q1 FY26. While sales grew marginally by 2% YoY to ₹35,311 crore, profitability took a hit. EBITDA fell 23% YoY to ₹3,669 crore, and net profit dropped 26% to ₹2,382 crore, down from ₹3,183 crore last year. EPS also declined 26% to ₹3.60 from ₹4.84, highlighting weaker bottom-line performance. Despite a large market cap of ₹1,19,700 crore and a low PE ratio of 12.3, the profit pressure raises concerns on operational efficiency and margin compression.
