Accordingly, the Company has recognised provision for tax expenses and re-measured its net deferred tax liabilities.The net impact due to availing the option has resulted in decrease in deferred tax by Rs 8,689 crore and decrease in current tax by Rs 2,107 crore, ONGC said in a statement.The company's Board has approved 2nd interim dividend of 35 per cent, i.e. Rs 1.75 on each equity share of Rs 5. The total payout on this account will be Rs 2,201.55 crore.The Record date for distribution of dividend has been fixed for 22nd February, 2022. This is in addition to 1st interim dividend of Rs 5.50 per share (110 per cent) declared earlier in November 2021.The production of crude oil and gas has declined during current year mainly due to restrictive conditions created by cyclone Tauktae & COVID, delay in mobilisation of MOPU Sagar Samrat to WO-16 Cluster project, modification work at Hazira and reservoir issues in S1 Vashistha fields in Eastern Offshore.While talking about the results, ONGC Chairman and Managing Director Alka Mittal informed that ONGC has drawn up plans to increase its capex spend in the next few years."A major part of this spend will be on exploration with acquisition of new acreages; use of latest technology in seismic data Acquisition, Processing and Interpretation (API) and on development and infrastructure projects for fast tracking the monetization of discovered resources. ONGC is also in the process of incorporating a wholly owned subsidiary to focus and grow its gas business," Mittal said.( With inputs from ANI )Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
