Awaiting price reaction for this filing.
Mahanagar Gas has received an unfavorable order from the Commissioner (CGST & Central Excise Appeals-II, Mumbai) upholding an earlier GST demand of about Rs. 54.33 crore plus applicable interest and a 100% penalty (i.e., another ~Rs. 54.33 crore). The demand relates to non-payment of GST under the Reverse Charge Mechanism on road reinstatement/restoration charges paid to the Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai and other local bodies (under MMRDA) for digging roads to lay CNG/PNG pipelines, covering July 2017 to March 2022. The order was dated August 7, 2025 and received by the company on August 25, 2025. MGL intends to file a further appeal with the GST Appellate Tribunal and, based on its own assessment and legal opinion, believes it has a strong case and does not expect any actual cash outflow at this stage.
This is a negative near-term overhang, as the total potential exposure (demand + 100% penalty + interest) could exceed Rs. 100 crore. However, since the matter is still under appeal and the company expects no outflow, the immediate impact on financials and operations is likely limited, though investors should track the next appellate outcome closely.
