What happened
Brokerage firm Emkay Global upgraded GAIL (company) stock to ‘buy’ from ‘add,’ setting a target price of ₹200, representing a potential upside of 15.6%. The firm noted that India’s gas demand showed sequential improvement in 2QFY27, declining only 2% year-on-year.

Why it matters
The outlook for GAIL is supported by the potential for gas transmission volumes to exceed the company’s FY27 guidance of 123 mmscmd. This potential beat could push the FY27 guidance of ₹40-45 billion higher, bolstered by stable Henry Hub settlements and continued strength in crude oil and spot LNG prices.
