Indian corporate Q1 FY27 earnings

Entities: Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Ltd (HPCL) · PNB Housing Finance · India · Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC)

Overview

In mid‑July 2026, hospitality firm Oriental Hotels saw net profit fall 20 % to ₹5.3 crore and fintech broker Angel One posted a 27.8 % quarter‑on‑quarter profit decline to ₹231 crore, with only modest revenue slip.

By early August, state‑run Oil and Natural Gas Corporation (ONGC) reported a dramatic earnings rebound, posting a standalone net profit of ₹17,034 crore—more than double the prior year—and revenue up 45 % to ₹46,460 crore. The surge was linked to a roughly 50 % jump in global crude‑oil prices after the West Asia conflict, lifting crude realisation to $99.45 per barrel and boosting gas sales, including ₹3,998 crore from new‑well output. Despite higher standalone profit, ONGC’s consolidated profit fell 43 % to ₹6,554 crore because of a large loss at subsidiary Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Ltd (HPCL). Crude output slipped slightly to 4.45 million tonnes and gas output to 4.76 billion cubic metres. ONGC announced plans to invest over ₹40,000 crore in western offshore projects from FY28 onward.

Meanwhile, PNB Housing Finance recorded a modest 4 % profit rise to ₹557 crore, reflecting improved asset quality. The contrasting results highlight sectoral divergence in India’s Q1 FY27, with hospitality and fintech under pressure while oil and housing‑finance firms posted gains driven by commodity price dynamics and operational improvements.
