Oil and Natural Gas Corporation Limited (ONGC) has issued a clarification regarding a news item published on psuconnect.in on January 27, 2026, captioned "ONGC, Reliance Sign Resource-Sharing Pact to Strengthen India’s Offshore Energy Push".
The company stated that the reported agreement is aligned with the forward-looking initiative facilitated by the Oilfields (Regulation and Development) Amendment Act, 2025 (ORDA Act 2025). This act provides a framework for E&P operators to share infrastructure and facilities for more efficient hydrocarbon development.
The agreement is intended to foster collaboration for the development of India's hydrocarbon sector. ONGC also noted that crude oil and gas prices are influenced by global markets and geopolitics, with a recent increase in world crude oil prices from approximately USD 60 on January 7, 2026, to USD 67 on January 28, 2026 (a 10.5% rise in three weeks).
ONGC attributed the rise in its share price on January 28, 2026, to the increase in global crude oil prices, which also impacted peer companies like Oil India Limited and Hind Oil Exploration. The company confirmed it was not aware of any other unannounced information that could explain the trading movement and stated there were no ongoing regulatory or legal proceedings.
