 "IOC's Q1 profit doubles on higher refining margin")
The oil firm earned a net profit of Rs 6,435.70 crore, or Rs 26.51 per share, in the April-June quarter, compared with Rs 2,522.94 crore, or Rs 10.39 a share, net profit in the same period of last fiscal, the company said in a regulatory filing.
IOC earned USD 10.77 on turning every barrel of crude oil into fuel in the first quarter of the current fiscal, as compared to a gross refining margin (GRM) of USD 2.25 per barrel.
Lower oil prices meant sales fell to Rs 101,306.82 crore from Rs 124,956.69 crore in the first quarter of last fiscal.
IOC said it got most of the revenue loss on sale of PDS kerosene and subsidised LPG compensated from government (Rs 1,732.95 crore) and upstream oil firms like ONGC (Rs 878.84 crore).
