&lt;em&gt;Indian Oil, BPCL and HPCL together made inventory gains of over Rs 12,000 crore in the April-June 2018 quarter alone as the price of crude rallied.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
New Delhi: &lt;/em&gt;Indian consumers of petrol and diesel may be reeling under high prices but oil marketing companies (OMCs) and the government are having a great time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The three state-owned companies &amp;ndash; Indian Oil, BPCL and HPCL &amp;ndash; together made inventory gains of over Rs 12,000 crore in the April-June 2018 quarter alone as the price of crude rallied.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OMCs are entitled to international prices of petrol and diesel. But there is usually a two or three-month time lag between buying and processing of crude by OMCs. If global prices go up during this period, OMCs reap inventory gains. Conversely, if international prices fall, they could suffer inventory losses.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Indian Oil reported inventory gains of Rs 7,866 crore in the April-June quarter of the current fiscal. It had earned inventory gains of Rs 3,442 crore in the preceding quarter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
HPCL&amp;rsquo;s inventory gains jumped 12 times to Rs 1,905 crore from the previous quarter. BPCL saw its inventory gains rise six-fold to Rs 2,679 crore.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Helped by inventory gains, Indian Oil&amp;rsquo;s net profit increased by over 30% to Rs 6,831 crore from the preceding quarter. Indian Oil&amp;rsquo;s financial results beat market estimates for April-June period. Net profit would have been even higher if the company had not suffered forex loss of Rs 1,805 crore.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
IOC earned a gross margin of $10.2 on every barrel of crude that it processed during the April-June quarter, higher than $9.1 per barrel that it had reported during the preceding quarter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The central and state governments too have reaped huge gains from the petroleum sector in recent years. The Centre earned Rs 2.84 lakh crore in taxes from the petroleum sector during 2017-18, more than double what it got in 2014-15. It also mobilised Rs 14,575 crore in dividend from oil PSUs in 2017-18. The figure would have been even bigger if ONGC had not forked out nearly Rs 37,000 crore to buy the Centre&amp;rsquo;s stake in state-owned refiner HPCL.&lt;br /&gt;

But there is usually a two or three-month time lag between buying and processing of crude by OMCs. If global prices go up during this period, OMCs reap inventory gains. Conversely, if international prices fall, they could suffer inventory losses.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Indian Oil reported inventory gains of Rs 7,866 crore in the April-June quarter of the current fiscal. It had earned inventory gains of Rs 3,442 crore in the preceding quarter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;HPCL&amp;rsquo;s inventory gains jumped 12 times to Rs 1,905 crore from the previous quarter. BPCL saw its inventory gains rise six-fold to Rs 2,679 crore.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Helped by inventory gains, Indian Oil&amp;rsquo;s net profit increased by over 30% to Rs 6,831 crore from the preceding quarter. Indian Oil&amp;rsquo;s financial results beat market estimates for April-June period. Net profit would have been even higher if the company had not suffered forex loss of Rs 1,805 crore.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;IOC earned a gross margin of $10.2 on every barrel of crude that it processed during the April-June quarter, higher than $9.1 per barrel that it had reported during the preceding quarter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The central and state governments too have reaped huge gains from the petroleum sector in recent years. The Centre earned Rs 2.84 lakh crore in taxes from the petroleum sector during 2017-18, more than double what it got in 2014-15. It also mobilised Rs 14,575 crore in dividend from oil PSUs in 2017-18.

New Delhi: &lt;/em&gt;Indian consumers of petrol and diesel may be reeling under high prices but oil marketing companies (OMCs) and the government are having a great time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The three state-owned companies &amp;ndash; Indian Oil, BPCL and HPCL &amp;ndash; together made inventory gains of over Rs 12,000 crore in the April-June 2018 quarter alone as the price of crude rallied.&lt;br /&gt;

New Delhi: &lt;/em&gt;Indian consumers of petrol and diesel may be reeling under high prices but oil marketing companies (OMCs) and the government are having a great time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The three state-owned companies &amp;ndash; Indian Oil, BPCL and HPCL &amp;ndash; together made inventory gains of over Rs 12,000 crore in the April-June 2018 quarter alone as the price of crude rallied.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OMCs are entitled to international prices of petrol and diesel. But there is usually a two or three-month time lag between buying and processing of crude by OMCs. If global prices go up during this period, OMCs reap inventory gains. Conversely, if international prices fall, they could suffer inventory losses.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Indian Oil reported inventory gains of Rs 7,866 crore in the April-June quarter of the current fiscal. It had earned inventory gains of Rs 3,442 crore in the preceding quarter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
HPCL&amp;rsquo;s inventory gains jumped 12 times to Rs 1,905 crore from the previous quarter. BPCL saw its inventory gains rise six-fold to Rs 2,679 crore.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Helped by inventory gains, Indian Oil&amp;rsquo;s net profit increased by over 30% to Rs 6,831 crore from the preceding quarter. Indian Oil&amp;rsquo;s financial results beat market estimates for April-June period. Net profit would have been even higher if the company had not suffered forex loss of Rs 1,805 crore.&lt;br /&gt;

IOC earned a gross margin of $10.2 on every barrel of crude that it processed during the April-June quarter, higher than $9.1 per barrel that it had reported during the preceding quarter.&lt;br /&gt;

HPCL&rsquo;s inventory gains jumped 12 times to Rs 1,905 crore from the previous quarter. BPCL saw its inventory gains rise six-fold to Rs 2,679 crore.<br />
<br />
Helped by inventory gains, Indian Oil&rsquo;s net profit increased by over 30% to Rs 6,831 crore from the preceding quarter. Indian Oil&rsquo;s financial results beat market estimates for April-June period. Net profit would have been even higher if the company had not suffered forex loss of Rs 1,805 crore.<br />
<br />
IOC earned a gross margin of $10.2 on every barrel of crude that it processed during the April-June quarter, higher than $9.1 per barrel that it had reported during the preceding quarter.<br />
<br />
The central and state governments too have reaped huge gains from the petroleum sector in recent years. The Centre earned Rs 2.84 lakh crore in taxes from the petroleum sector during 2017-18, more than double what it got in 2014-15. It also mobilised Rs 14,575 crore in dividend from oil PSUs in 2017-18. The figure would have been even bigger if ONGC had not forked out nearly Rs 37,000 crore to buy the Centre&rsquo;s stake in state-owned refiner HPCL.<br />

As Consumers Reel from High Fuel Prices, OMCs Make a Killing Off Inventory Gains -Noor Mohammad

-TheWire.in Indian Oil, BPCL and HPCL together made inventory gains of over Rs 12,000 crore in the April-June 2018 quarter alone as the price of crude rallied. New Delhi: Indian consumers of petrol and diesel may be reeling under high prices but oil marketing companies (OMCs) and the government are having a great time. The three state-owned companies – Indian Oil, BPCL and HPCL – together made inventory gains of over Rs 12,000 crore in the April-June 2018 quarter alone as the price of crude rallied. OMCs are entitled to international prices of petrol and diesel. But there is usually a two or three-month time lag between buying and processing of crude by OMCs. If global prices go up during this period, OMCs reap inventory gains. Conversely, if international prices fall, they could suffer inventory losses. Indian Oil reported inventory gains of Rs 7,866 crore in the April-June quarter of the current fiscal. It had earned inventory gains of Rs 3,442 crore in the preceding quarter. HPCL’s inventory gains jumped 12 times to Rs 1,905 crore from the previous quarter. BPCL saw its inventory gains rise six-fold to Rs 2,679 crore. Helped by inventory gains, Indian Oil’s net profit increased by over 30% to Rs 6,831 crore from the preceding quarter. Indian Oil’s financial results beat market estimates for April-June period. Net profit would have been even higher if the company had not suffered forex loss of Rs 1,805 crore. IOC earned a gross margin of $10.2 on every barrel of crude that it processed during the April-June quarter, higher than $9.1 per barrel that it had reported during the preceding quarter. The central and state governments too have reaped huge gains from the petroleum sector in recent years.
