I now hand the conference over to Mr. Nitin Tiwari from PhillipCapital India Private Limited.
Thank you, and over to you, sir.
Nitin Tiwari: Thank you, Nitesh. Good day, ladies and gentlemen. Best wishes to everyone in advance for
Diwali. On behalf of PhillipCapital India Limited, I welcome everyone to Mahanagar Gas
Limited's Q2 FY27 earnings call. Today, we have the pleasure of having with us the senior
management of MGL led by Mr. Praveer Kumar Srivastava, Managing Director, Mr. Ajay Sinha,
Deputy Managing Director, and Mr. Rajesh Patel, Chief Financial Officer.
Before we begin, I would like to mention that some of the statements made in today's discussion
may be forward-looking in nature, and we believe that expectations contained in the statement
are reasonable. However, these statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties that may
lead to different results. We urge you to consider that quarterly numbers are not a reflection of
long-term trends or indication of full-year results. With that said, I will now hand over the call
to the management. Over to you, sir.
Praveer Srivastava: Thank you. A very good day and best wishes in advance for Diwali and welcome to the earnings
call of Mahanagar Gas Limited for the second quarter of the financial year 2026-27. I would like
to thank all of you for attending our earnings call today. The ongoing West Asia conflicts and
uncertainties surrounding the Strait of Hormuz continue to affect global LNG availability and
prices.
India's natural gas supply situation is gradually improving, though with the LNG imports
showing signs of recovery. However, 100% of our domestic PNG, DPNG requirement and the
major portion of our CNG requirements are sourced from domestically produced natural gas
ensuring uninterrupted supply to our domestic PNG customers and continued reliable supply to
our CNG consumers.
Gas supplies to industrial and commercial customers are partly curtailed. Gas prices may remain
volatile in the near term, but are expected to gradually decline as geopolitical tensions ease. We
continue to closely monitor the situation and remain committed to maintain uninterrupted gas
supply to our customers.
Currently, we are into PNG Drive 3.0 that builds on the achievements of PNG Drive 2.0,
focusing on accelerating domestic PNG connections, activating dormant connections, improving
infrastructure utilization, and expanding PNG adoptions through strong stakeholder
coordination. MGL continues to create CGD infrastructure across its business segments in the
licensed area.

Moderator: Thank you very much. We will now begin the question and answer session. We have first
question from the line of Mr. Probal Sen from ICICI Securities. Sir, please go ahead.
Probal Sen: Yes. Sir, very Happy Diwali to all of you in advance, first of all. Two or three questions from
my side. Firstly, as far as the sourcing is concerned, sir, can we get a sense of how much was
spot LNG as a percentage of our total volume sourcing for this quarter and what was sort of the
blended price of the same in this quarter?
Rajesh Patel: Our at the company level volume, if you compare spot was around 4%. When I'm saying spot,
I'm referring to other than HPHT spot, which comes through IGX. If we include spot through
IGX HPHT also, then it was around 11%. Okay?

Probal Sen: So, 11% including exchange spot volumes, but pure spot LNG per se was only about 4% for the
quarter.
Rajesh Patel: Yes. And that too I'm saying with respect to, CNG volumes, this is 4% is with respect to CNG
volume. If you take it at company level, then it is hardly 2.5% of the overall company volumes.
Pure spot RLNG.
