Great to see Indian Oil performing well in Q4! The 50% profit jump shows our PSUs can compete globally. But why such a big drop in annual profit? Hope they maintain this momentum next year. Dividend is a nice bonus for shareholders 👍

While profits are up, I'm concerned about the refining margins dropping from $12 to $4.80 per barrel. Does this mean we're becoming less efficient? Also, when will these profits translate to lower fuel prices for common people? 🚗

Good numbers overall! The 3% growth in sales shows increasing energy demand in India. But I wish they'd invest more in green energy alternatives. We can't rely on fossil fuels forever. Solar and hydrogen should get more focus.

As a small investor, I'm happy with the Rs 3 dividend. But the annual profit drop by 67% is worrying. Hope management has a solid plan to handle global oil price fluctuations better. Indian Oil is our energy lifeline!

The numbers look good on paper, but when will we see better service at petrol pumps? Many IOCL stations still have dirty toilets and poor maintenance. Profit should mean better customer experience too!

Interesting to see domestic sales increasing while exports remain stable. Shows India's growing energy needs. But with climate change concerns, hope IOCL is investing enough in sustainable solutions. The future is green! 🌱
