Oil India Share Jumps 6%. Here's Why

In news from the energy sector, the stock price of Oil India (OIL) surged 6% on Friday to rebound to near its 52-week high after 3 weeks. The stock hit an intra-day high of Rs 294.4.

The gains came after the company's CMD Ranjit Rath made a slew of announcements on OIL's growth outlook and told media that the company is exploring all channels to repatriate its dividends worth US$ 150 m from Russia.

OIL is expecting a series of new wells and gas fields to go into production in Assam and Rajasthan soon. This development will enable the company to achieve a crude oil production of 3.8 million tonnes (mt) in the current year, up 20% over the 3.18 mt of oil produced in 2022-23 (FY23).

As per reports, the company is exploring legal as well as diplomatic channels to repatriate its $150 million worth of dividends that have remained stuck since financial sanctions were placed on Russia.

Indian Oil Corporation, BPCL, and ONGC also have dividends stuck in Russia due to banking restrictions and Western sanctions.
