On Thursday, June 12, shares of ONGC and Oil India rose up to 5% during morning trading. The rise came after crude oil prices saw a sharp increase, improving the earnings outlook for these upstream oil companies. Higher oil prices mean better revenue for producers like ONGC and Oil India.
Brent crude prices, which had dropped to around $61 per barrel in April, have now climbed to about $69–$70. The spike is due to growing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, raising concerns over the global oil supply.
Falling crude prices had previously hurt earnings. For example, ONGC’s net realisations fell 9% year-on-year in Q4 FY25. The company’s stock had underperformed the Nifty Index due to low oil prices. The current rise in crude prices could now help turn that around, provided the trend continues.
