Oct-14-2025

Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) is aiming about $1 billion of profit from a new trading company it plans to set up for buying and selling of crude oil and refined fuels of its group companies.

They also export some amount of fuel.

The company is looking to amalgamate all trading business under one roof for economies of scale as well as get better prices. The company plans to set up a new trading company which will buy crude oil for subsidiaries Hindustan Petroleum Corporation (HPCL) and Mangalore Refinery and Petrochemicals (MRPL) as well as trade oil and gas produced by its overseas firm ONGC Videsh.
