Mahanagar Gas Ltd

- FY25 Capex target: INR 900-1,000 crores including INR 700-800 crores for existing GAs and INR 100-150 crores for Ratnagiri GA. - Unison GA (acquired) planned aggressive capex: INR 100-150 crores for 2024-25, with similar run rate expected for subsequent years. - Focus on expanding CNG station footprint: 45 new stations targeted in current FY, similar numbers next year, plus upgrading existing stations with additional dispensers/compressors. - Investment to strengthen infrastructure in newly acquired areas for long-term growth. - Use of cash (~INR 2,000 crores as of Dec 31) planned partly for UEPL acquisition integration. Overall, strategic capex focuses on expanding and upgrading infrastructure in existing and new geographical areas to support volume growth.

- CNG volume growth expected at historical CAGR levels or slightly better, supported by recent incentive schemes, especially for commercial vehicles. - Industrial volumes anticipated to grow at double-digit rates driven by new large industrial customers and volume-based discounts, mainly in GA-3. - Commercial segment expected to grow at 4-5% volumes as business-as-usual. - Vehicle conversions to CNG projected to reach around 80,000 in the current financial year; next year expected between 80,000 to 100,000 additions. - Expansion plans include adding 45 new CNG stations and upgrading existing stations with increased compression capacity. - Growth over next 1-2 years in LNG sales expected to be minimal initially due to limited LNG stations and signed contracts primarily targeting B2B with low volume impact. - Overall volume growth driven largely by CNG, with a moderate increase in industrial sales contributing to top-line growth of about 6-8%.

- Management expects steady volume growth driven primarily by CNG (~6-8% growth) and double-digit growth in industrial volumes. - EBITDA remains strong; 9 months EBITDA of INR 1,449 crores, 82% up YoY; guidance suggests EBITDA in the range of 10-12% margin is safe to assume going forward. - Capex for FY25 is expected around INR 900-1000 crores, with investments in new acquisition areas like Ratnagiri (~INR 100-150 crores). - Profitability supported by low procurement costs, pricing stability, and operational efficiencies; current EBITDA per SCM is better than past but may fluctuate based on growth and pricing strategies. - Net profit for 9 months is INR 1,024 crores versus INR 521 crores previous year, indicating strong earnings growth. - Management remains cautious on price cuts but aims for absolute profit growth and balanced EBITDA per unit. - UEPL, a new acquisition, is EBITDA positive and growing ~18-20%, to contribute to consolidated earnings from next quarter.
