We interacted with BPCL management during recent Mumbai refinery visit. Management indicated 1) Expansion of Bina refinery to 11.5MTPA from 7.8MTPA along with 1.2MTPA ethylene capacity will cost Rs400bn 2) polypropylene (PP) capacity addition of 40,000tons will cost Rs50bn 3) plans to file Field Development Plan (FDP) for Brazilian field (BM Seal 11 concession) by Nov-22 and develop the block at $1.6bn over next three years and 4) targets to achieve net zero carbon emissions in Scope 1 and Scope 2 by CY40.
OutlookWe maintain earnings and rating as ‘HOLD’ at TP of Rs331, as rising diesel marketing losses remain a concern despite healthy refining outlook.
