Oil India Limited reported a net profit of ₹ 627.23 crore for the second quarter of financial year 2019-2020. This is lower than the ₹ 862.01 crore net profit reported in the corresponding quarter of the previous financial year.
Total income for the period stood at ₹ 3,481.52 crore, down from ₹ 4,031.41 crore in the corresponding quarter of the financial year 2018-2019. On a sequential basis, the lower profits and revenue are due to a fall in crude oil prices.
