Strategic Land Acquisition for Growth

Business Segments and JV Performance
GP Petroleums operates across several segments, including lubricants, greases, base oil, bitumen, and fuel oil. The company also holds a 50% stake in Amron Oil Resources Private Limited, a joint venture that incurred a loss of ₹0.60 crore in its first year of operations during FY26.
Impact of New Labour Codes
In line with the implementation of new Labour Codes, GP Petroleums recognized an incremental employee benefit liability of ₹1.315 crore in the fourth quarter of FY26. This is expected to influence future operational costs as the company restructures its employee benefits.
