Meanwhile, domestic brokerage firm ICICI Securities in a research report on ONGC has maintained Buy rating. The firm estimates an EPS CAGR of 19 per cent over FY22-24E, driven by assumptions of US$75/bbl crude realisation, US $7.8/mmbtu gas realisation and a CAGR of 3.9 per cent in overall group production (including OVL).

The company's standalone production of oil and gas (including JV share) declined by 6.7 million tonnes in the last 4 years, the report mentioned. 

While the start of production from the KG basin asset and new assets is expected to redress this trend over FY23-FY27, the brokerage report remained conservative in estimates, factoring-in 3 per cent CAGR in oil and 9 per cent CAGR in gas output (standalone) over FY22-FY24E.

The report also highlighted the key risks including a sharp reversal in oil & gas price trends, further delays in start of production from KG basin and regulatory setbacks.
