Energy stocks are trading mixed today with MRPL and Gujarat Gas leading the gainers. As per a leading financial daily, the Supreme Court has allowed gas transporter GAIL to bid in a tender for the Ennore-Tuticorin natural gas pipeline. This comes on the back of the Petroleum and Natural Gas Regulatory Board (PNGRB) rejecting its bid. Subsequently, GAIL had approached the Supreme Court so that its bid could be accepted.
