MANAGEMENT OUTLOOK FOR THE YEAR 2026-27

The outlook for the process plant industry in India for 2026-27 is exceptionally robust, entering a super¬
cycle of capacity expansion and high capital expenditure (Capex). Driven by India's decision to
aggressively expand domestic processing infrastructure while Western nations scale back, the market is
on track to reach $183.85 billion in 2026, supported by a projected downstream refining and
petrochemical annual growth rate of 5.4%.

FUTURE OUTLOOK:

The Indian oil and gas industry in 2026-27 is navigating a transition marked by stabilizing crude prices,
shifting global trade dynamics, and a strong government push for energy diversification.

The sector's outlook is defined by several key elements:

Crude Oil Prices & Economic Impact: Global crude supply has stabilized, leading the Indian crude oil
basket to cool from earlier highs, ultimately projected to settle below $90 per barrel. While this eases
inflation slightly, elevated energy prices remain a concern, nudging the IMF to forecast India's FY27
GDP growth at 6.4%.

Energy Import Dynamics: India continues to import about 85% of its crude requirements, relying heavily
on suppliers like Russia, Iraq, and Saudi Arabia. However, the country is diversifying its portfolio,
highlighted by major agreements to import Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG) from the United States.

Regulatory Environment: The government has expanded the formula-based pricing system for natural
gas to incentivize exploration while retaining some administrative controls. The Union Budget has also
exempted central excise duty on compressed biogas (CBG) blended with CNG to promote cleaner
alternative fuels.

Green Transition Goals: Long-term domestic demand is projected to double by 2045, but the industry is
actively shifting toward cleaner solutions. Through initiatives showcased at events like the India Energy
Week, India is scaling up green hydrogen production and deploying hydrogen buses in cities like Delhi
NCR.

The outlook for the process plant industry in India for 2026-27 is exceptionally robust, entering a super¬
cycle of capacity expansion and high capital expenditure (Capex). Driven by India's decision to
aggressively expand domestic processing infrastructure while Western nations scale back, the market is
on track to reach $183.85 billion in 2026, supported by a projected downstream refining and
petrochemical annual growth rate of 5.4%.

India is positioned to lead global refinery additions through 2030. Total refining capacity is projected to
expand significantly, rising toward 6.32 million barrels per day by the end of 2027.

Greenfield Petrochemical Integration: The massive $8.3 billion, 180,000 bpd HPCL Rajasthan Refinery
(HRRL) in Pachpadra officially commenced commercial operations. This integrated refinery-cum-
petrochemical complex acts as a primary anchor for regional process industries, churning out 2.4 million
tonnes annually of polypropylene, polyethylene, butadiene, and benzene.

Public Sector Expansion Blast: Massive public sector undertaking (PSU) brownfield expansions are
hitting critical construction phases for 2026-27 delivery:

Panipat Refinery: Adding a massive 200,000 bpd expansion crude unit.

Barauni Refinery: Implementing a new 180,000 bpd processing unit.

Numaligarh Refinery: Undergoing a 120,000-bpd capacity boost.

Strategic Infrastructure: ONGC has approved major capital allocation to build out 13 million barrels of
national strategic oil reserves via new underground rock caverns (such as in Mangalore), requiring
massive specialized process, piping, and safety equipment
