Gujarat Gas Shareholders' Meeting Tomorrow on September 17, 2025

Gujarat Gas Ltd has scheduled its shareholders' meeting for September 17, 2025 on Wednesday where members will vote on the proposed merger with GSPC and GSPL. The meeting will be held to formally seek shareholder approval for the restructuring plan.

Gujarat Gas Merger: Share Swap Ratios for Gujarat State Petroleum Corporation (GSPC) and Gujarat State Petronet Ltd (GSPL)

As part of the proposed merger scheme, a detailed share swap arrangement has been outlined to integrate Gujarat State Petroleum Corporation (GSPC) and Gujarat State Petronet Ltd (GSPL) with Gujarat Gas. The companies involved have announced the following share swap ratios:

• GSPC shareholders will receive 10 shares of Gujarat Gas for every 305 shares held.
• GSPL shareholders will receive 10 shares of Gujarat Gas for every 13 shares held.
• Existing Gujarat Gas shareholders will be allotted 1 share in GSPL Transmission Ltd. for every 3 shares they currently hold.

Additionally, GSPL Transmission Ltd., a new entity, will be carved out as part of the overall restructuring process, in which Gujarat Gas shareholders will continue to hold a stake.

How the Merger Boosts Valuation for GSPL and Gujarat Gas

Based on the proposed share swap ratios and prevailing market prices, GSPL shares are estimated to offer an upside potential of around 7%, presenting a possible short-term trading opportunity for investors.

On the other hand, Gujarat Gas is positioned to benefit more significantly in financial terms, particularly through access to approximately Rs 7,200 crore in carry-forward losses from GSPC. These accumulated losses can be utilized to offset future taxable income, potentially improving the company's profitability and enhancing long-term shareholder value.
