Oil marketing PSU Indian Oil Corporation (IOC) is keen to develop its existing refinery in West Bengal Haldia into a petrochemicals complex for sustaining operations profitably, a company official said on Wednesday. Running a standalone refinery is not sustainable in terms of profitability for which it has to be supplemented by a petrochemicals complex, he said. "We want to set up a petrochemicals complex contiguous to the Haldia refinery whose current capacity is 8.5 million tonnes per annum (mtpa)", the company official said. IOC has sought land from Haldia Fertiliser Corporation (HFC), whose factory is lying defunct, for developing the petrochemicals complex, he said. "We have sought 175 acres of land from HFC.

We are seeking the land for the petrochemicals project", the IOC official said. Drawing an analogy, the official said the Paradip ..

State-owned Indian Oil Corporation (IOC) on Saturday reported a net loss of Rs 272.35 crore for July-September - the second straight quarter of loss arising from selling petrol, diesel and cooking gas LPG at rates below cost. The net loss of Rs 272.35 crore compared to a profit of Rs 6,360.05 crore in July-September 2021, according to a company's filing with the stock exchanges. IOC as well as other state-owned fuel retailers had booked heavy losses in the first quarter of the current fiscal as they did not revise petrol, diesel and cooking gas LPG prices in line with the cost to help the government contain runaway inflation. In April-June (the first quarter of 2022-23 fiscal), IOC booked a net loss of Rs 1,992.53 crore. For the first half of the current fiscal, the company has now accumulated a Rs 2,264.88 crore net loss against a profit of Rs 12,301.42 crore in the year-ago period. The revenue from operations soared to Rs 2.28 lakh crore in July-September from Rs 1.69 lakh crore
