Item No.1: Approval of Material Related Party Transaction(s) to be entered into with Petronet LNG Limited for the Financial Year 2026-27

Petronet LNG Limited is a Related Party of the Company within the meaning of Section 2(76) of the Companies Act, 2013 and Regulation 2(1)(zb) of the Listing Regulations.

The Company is proposing to enter into certain business transactions with Petronet LNG Limited for the Financial Year 2026-27. Major transaction amounting to almost 95% of the total amount will be in the form of purchase of Regasified Liquified Natural Gas. Other than this, certain other services will also be availed such as regasification, lorry loading, etc., at Kochi & Dahej Terminal from Petronet LNG Limited. All transactions to be entered into by the Company with Petronet LNG Limited are in the ordinary course of business and are on arm’s length basis and reviewed and recommended by the Audit Committee/Board for placing it for approval of the shareholders in compliance with the provisions of the Act/ Listing Regulations/ Related Party Transaction Policy of the Company.

It may be noted that as per the definition provided in the explanation to Regulation 23(1) of Listing Regulations, a transaction with a related party shall be considered material if the transaction(s) to be entered into individually or taken together with previous transactions during a financial year, exceeds Rs.3,000 Crore + 2.5% of the annual consolidated turnover of the listed entity above Rs.40,000 Crore or Rs.5000 Crore, whichever is lower. Further, all Material Related Party Transactions require prior approval of the Members through a Resolution and no related party shall vote to approve such Resolution whether the entity is a related party to the particular transaction or not.

The value of transactions with Petronet LNG Limited for the Financial Year 2026-27 are estimated to be upto Rs.8,438.61 Crore and this amount exceeds the threshold limit Rs.5,000 Crore, one of the criteria prescribed above in the definition of Material Related Party Transactions and therefore it is a Material Related Party Transaction.

BPCL has been entering into similar transactions with Petronet LNG Limited in the past as well. The value of similar transactions in the past three years, including for the services availed, as mentioned above, were as follows:

2024-25 : Rs.7,741.57 Crore 2023-24 : Rs.7,913.19 Crore 2022-23 : Rs. 9,275.03 Crore

Vide Postal Ballot Notice dated 25[th] February 2025, a total amount of Rs.8,850 Crore was approved by shareholders for the year 2025-26. Against this the actual value of transactions incurred was Rs.5,386.21 Crore (April-December 2025). The estimated value of the transactions with Petronet LNG Limited during Financial Year 2025-26 is expected to be Rs.8,850 Crore.

The Audit Committee has reviewed the certificate provided by the Whole Time Director and CFO of the Company as required under the RPT Industry Standards.

Approval of the Members of the Company is therefore required in terms of Regulation 23(4) of the Listing Regulations, by way of passing of an Ordinary Resolution for the aforesaid Material Related Party Transactions to be entered into for the Financial Year 2026-27.
