Overview

Detailed Summary

Chennai Petroleum Corporation Limited (CPCL) is an integrated Indian refinery business that refines crude oil into fuels, LPG, naphtha, petrochemical feedstocks, lube base stocks, paraffin wax and other value‑added products, operating two refineries with combined 10.5 MMTPA capacity and a unique lube/wax capability at Manali, while IndianOil markets the majority of CPCL’s fuel production.
CPCL delivered record physical performance in FY26 with highest ever crude throughput of 11.71 MMT (112% of installed capacity) and Q4 throughput of 2.93 MMT (111%), attaining a distillate yield of 79.1% and highest LPG and niche product outputs, underscoring sustained operational excellence and blend optimisation across challenging global supply conditions.
Financially CPCL achieved a FY26 average GRM of US$9.2/bbl (Q4 GRM US$13.75/bbl and core GRM ~US$10.3/bbl), reported net borrowings ~INR973 crore (net D/E ~0.09), paid a record total dividend of INR62 per share and reduced gross debt to ~INR1,900 crore, reflecting strong margins, disciplined capex and conservative balance‑sheet management.

ESG and operational reliability are emphasised: CPCL achieved a S&P Global ESG score of 60 and top quartile placements in international benchmarking for energy intensity and availability, while investing in VOC capture, stormwater resilience, rooftop solar and other environmental controls to reduce risk and improve sustainability credentials.
