GAIL has informed exchanges that the completion of two pending pipeline sections under its integrated Jagdishpur–Haldia–Bokaro–Dhamra Pipeline Project has been pushed back from March 2026 to September 2026 — a six-month delay. The pending sections are the Kolkata–Haldia stretch (in West Bengal) and the Dhamra–Haldia pipeline. The delay is attributed to Right of Use (RoU) and fisheries front availability issues, not funding shortfalls. The board approved the revised schedule on 25 March 2026. No additional investment is required, as costs remain unchanged.
Short-term negative sentiment likely as the project timeline slips by half a year, potentially delaying revenue from these sections. However, the delay is regulatory/land-related rather than financial, and no extra capex is needed, which limits downside.
