AI summary

The government has approved the re-employment of Arun Kumar Singh as Chairman of ONGC for one year starting 7 December 2025, on a contract basis. His term will end when a regular appointee takes charge or on further orders, whichever comes first. The decision was made by the Appointment Committee of the Cabinet through the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas.

Likely market impact

Leadership continuity at ONGC for one year, though the short reappointment hints at a pending permanent successor.
