In the latest quarter, the volume of natural gas transmission grew by 7 per cent to 116.33 MMSCMD in Q1, as compared to 108.23 MMSCMD in Q4 FY23.

However, the marketing of natural gas, which constitutes 96 per cent of the company's overall revenue, decreased by 18% to Rs 283.81 billion. Gas marketing volume increased slightly by 2%, reaching 98.84 MMSCMD against 96.46 MMSCMD in the previous quarter.
