On the reaction day the stock moved 5.8 pts less than Nifty Microcap 250 and 4.4 pts less than its Oil peers, over the same two closes: a difference in percentage points, not a measure of what the filing did.
Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
On October 28, 2025, HOEC clarified that HPCL identified high chloride content in about 54.6 thousand metric tonnes of crude oil supplied from the B-80 field under a September 3, 2025 sales agreement. The company said the contamination is under examination, no loss, damage, or claim is attributable to it, and discussions with HPCL will continue.
The quality issue could affect future HPCL sales, but no financial loss or claim has been attributed to HOEC and no financial impact has been estimated.
