Revenue guidance

Category 3
  • Volume growth guidance for FY25 is around 8-10%, primarily driven by CNG, commercial, and domestic sectors.
  • CNG sector expected to grow at 15-20% over the next 2-3 years, aided by new schemes accelerating expansion (FDODO scheme).
  • Anticipated increase of 1 to 1.2 MMSCMD in CNG volumes over the next two years.
  • Infrastructure expansion, especially outside Gujarat (new GAs), will contribute to gradual volume growth but may take time to mature.
  • Industrial volumes outside Morbi show modest growth, with infrastructure development underway to unlock potential in areas like Ankleshwar, Dahej, Ahmedabad rural, Thane, Punjab, Haryana, MP, Rajasthan, and Maharashtra.
  • Revenue growth expected to follow volume growth with focus on maintaining EBITDA margins between ₹4.5 to ₹5.5 per SCM.
  • Capital expenditure around INR 900-1000 crores annually, focused on pipeline infrastructure and CNG station upgrades.
  • Pricing power exists to protect margins, but no set formula for price increases annually.

Fundraise plans

  • There is no explicit mention of any current or planned fundraising through debt or equity in the provided transcript.
  • The company plans to maintain a capex in the range of INR 900 to 1,000 crores annually, focusing on organic growth, especially in mobility (CNG) and energy sectors.
  • Dividend policy discussions indicate a balance between capex and shareholder returns, but no direct references to raising new funds.
  • The management emphasizes internal balance between capital requirements, leverage, and dividend payouts without mentioning fresh equity or debt issuance.
  • Expansion through the FDODO scheme (Full Dealer-Operated and Dealer-Owned) suggests asset-light growth reducing the need for significant company capex on CNG stations.
  • Long-term LNG contracts and infrastructure expansion appear funded through ongoing operations and internal resources rather than new fundraising efforts.

Capex plans

Yes
  • Annual capex guidance is around INR 900 to 1,000 crores for the coming years.
  • Over 50% of this capex will be allocated to steel and PE pipeline infrastructure.
  • Remaining capex will focus on domestic infrastructure including CNG station upgradation and potential new company-owned CNG stations.
  • Capex on new CNG stations in new Geographical Areas (GAs) will largely be borne by franchisees/dealers under the FDODO asset-light model, reducing capital expenditure by the company for these stations.
  • More than 60% of new capex is expected to be directed toward new GAs outside Gujarat, as infrastructure within Gujarat is largely developed.
  • The FDODO scheme aims to accelerate CNG infrastructure expansion by involving entrepreneurs, targeting over 200 new stations in two years.
  • Long-term LNG contracts (3.3 MMSCMD volume) are up for review around mid-2025, which may impact future sourcing strategy.
