Fueled by rising transmission volumes and a turnaround in petrochemicals, we are forecasting GAIL India Ltd.'s return on equity to improve to ~15% by FY26 from a low of 9.5% in FY23. A combination of the upcoming gas price-related tariff hikes, an Ebitda compound annual growth rate of 32% over FY23-26E, and onset of new projects can drive a re-rating in our opinion.
