ONGC Clarifies News on Resource-Sharing Pact, Links Share Rise to Crude Oil Prices
ONGC clarified a news item about a resource-sharing pact, stating it aligns with the ORDA Act 2025 for E&P infrastructure sharing. The company attributed its share price rise to an increase in global crude oil prices, which rose 10.5% to USD 67 from USD 60 in three weeks.
The announcement clarifies existing information and regulatory frameworks rather than introducing new business developments or financial results. The share price movement is attributed to external market factors.
The announcement is a clarification and does not contain new material information that would positively or negatively impact the company. It explains market movements based on external factors and existing regulations.
Oil and Natural Gas Corporation Limited (ONGC) has issued a clarification regarding a news item published on psuconnect.in on January 27, 2026, titled "ONGC, Reliance Sign Resource-Sharing Pact to Strengthen India’s Offshore Energy Push." The company stated that the reported agreement aligns with the Oilfields (Regulation and Development) Amendment Act, 2025 (ORDA Act 2025), which provides a framework for E&P operators to share infrastructure for more efficient hydrocarbon development.
ONGC explained that the agreement is intended to foster collaboration for the development of India's hydrocarbon sector. The company also noted an increase in world crude oil prices from approximately USD 60 on January 7, 2026, to USD 67 on January 28, 2026, a rise of 10.5% in three weeks. This increase in crude oil prices is cited as the reason for the rise in ONGC's share price on January 28, 2026. Peer companies like Oil India Limited and Hind Oil Exploration also saw their share prices increase.
The company confirmed that it was engaged in negotiations related to this initiative, which is facilitated by the ORDA Act 2025. ONGC asserted that there was no other undisclosed information that could explain the trading movement and that there were no ongoing regulatory or legal proceedings.
