Pre-IPO, MGL have sold 10% stake in MGL to Maharashtra government and post public sale of 25 %  through the IPO, GAIL and BG would hold about 32.5 %  stake each

MGL distributes CNG for use in motor vehicles and PNG for domestic household use as well as for commercial and industrial use. 

MGL distributes natural gas through an extensive CGD (City Gas Distribution) network of pipelines, for which it has the exclusive authorisation to lay, build, expand and operate the CGD network in accordance with the Petroleum and Natural Gas Regulatory Board (Exclusivity for City or Local Natural Gas Distribution Network) Regulations, 2008 in Mumbai until 2020, its Adjoining Areas until 2030 and the Raigad district until 2040.

  • As at June 30, 2015, it supplied CNG to over 0.43 million vehicles through its network of 180 CNG filling stations, The number of CNG operated motor vehicles has grown steadily at a CAGR of 12.42% from March 31, 2009 to June 30, 2015 in Mumbai and its Adjoining Areas.
  • MGL provided PNG connection to approximately 0.82 million domestic households, over 2,600 commercial and 55 industrial consumers in Mumbai and its Adjoining Areas.
  •  As at June 30, 2015, MGL had a supply network of over 4,464 kms of pipelines, including approximately 4,057 kms of polyethylene (medium and low pressure) pipeline (PE pipeline) and 407 kms of steel pipeline, and 180 CNG filling stations.

In the last five Fiscals, MGL has set up 3 CGSs, 36 CNG filling stations, laid down 132.61 kms of steel and 1,272.63 kms of PE pipeline (including medium and low pressure PE network), and added 0.31 million PNG customers.

MGL intends to 80 CNG filling stations and add over 800 kms of steel pipeline and PE pipeline and during the next five years, in its areas of operations. In order to diversify its portfolio of CNG filling stations, MGL intends to set up a higher number of CNG filling stations that would be owned and operated by it.

There are significant entry barriers for competitors to enter into MGL’s area of operation, such as its infrastructure exclusivity, the requirement of large investments to establish a natural gas distribution network, lead time in the allocation of domestic natural gas and obtaining the required regulatory approvals.

Industry growth:

The Indian City Gas Distribution (CGD) market size was estimated at INR 24000 crores in 2014, with sales volumes of 20 MMSCMD (million standard cubic metre per day), accounting for 13% of India’s total natural gas consumption.

Natural gas consumption grew at a CAGR of 3.7% over the previous five years to 144 MMSCMD in Fiscal 2014 from 120 MMSCMD in Fiscal 2009, driven by growth in consumption from sectors such as power, fertilisers and CGD. ICRA Research believes the natural gas ‘demand potential’ will rise to approximately 280 MMSCMD by Fiscal 2020 and further to approximately 314 MMSCMD by Fiscal 2025 from the current demand potential of more than 225 MMSCMD.

Risk Factors

  • A majority of natural gas supply requirements are met by the allocation of domestic natural gas from the MoPNG at a price determined in accordance with the New Domestic Natural Gas Pricing
    Guidelines 2014. Any increase in the cost price of natural gas or any reduction in allocation amount of domestic natural gas may have an adverse effect.
  • Revenue largely delended on CNG Business
  • Natural gas marketing exclusivity in Mumbai and its Adjoining Areas is subject to determination before the Delhi High Court. In case of adverse decision, any entity can distribute natural gas in Mumbai and its Adjoining Areas, by payment of transportation tariff.

Should you invest:   

As per financial reports, the net profit is not growing. However, at the current price band (380-421), the MGL IPO is priced attractively.  Positive factors:

  • At upper price, the approx PE ratio will be 14, which is much attractive as compared to IGL (PE 19)  & Gujarat Gas (PE 16).  
  • Debt free balance sheet,
  • positive operating cash flows
  • MGL has consistently maintained a dividend payout ratio of over 50% and dividend per share of Rs. 15.8 per share. This translates into a dividend yield of 3.8% on the higher price band.

As per moneycontrol, grey market was expecting the IPO price of Rs 480 + additional Rs 100 premium. Also, Maharashtra government is now holding 10% stake in MGL.
