GAIL Shares Downgraded To 'Add' By ICICI Securities Citing Limited Near-Term Triggers — Check New Target Price
The downgrade reflects cautious optimism: while GAIL’s fundamentals remain strong, tariff disappointment and muted growth prospects temper expectations for outperformance over the next 12 months.

PNGRB has announced a new transmission tariff of Rs 65.7/MMBtu, effective January 2026, marking a 12% increase from the current Rs 58.6/MMBtu. While this hike offers some relief, it falls short of GAIL’s proposed Rs 78/MMBtu and the street’s expectation of a 20% rise.
