Paras Savla (Chairman and Managing Director) of Deep Industries commented on the business outlook by saying that “Indian government is focussed on increasing gas usage in the energy basket from the current 6% to 15% by 2030. At the same time, the focus has been brought to revive the domestic production of gas which was in decline since 2012. All these efforts are yielding results and gas production in India is slated to increase by 18% CAGR till FY25E. This is reflected in our strong order book, which currently stands at ₹976cr up 76% YoY. With a thriving bidding pipeline, future demand looks promising and our debt-free, well-funded status positions us for success."
“The Government also announced the availability of 26 exploration and development blocks totaling around 2.23 lakh sq km under the HELP Policy. Furthermore, 75 discovered oil and gas fields across multiple onshore and offshore basins were offered under DSF-3 bidding. These policies have interested many new players forming a base for the potential expansion of our clientele. With the acquisition of Dolphin, the group is set to expand its services portfolio to the offshore segment. Now we are in a position to give service to our clients both onshore and offshore from exploration to production and processing. With multiple growth factors in action, we anticipate substantial growth ahead. Our revenue outlook is positive, and we anticipate robust interest in our offerings," said Paras Savla.
