State-run GAIL on Wednesday reported a marginal 1.3 per cent y-o-y growth in its consolidated net profit at ₹2,506 crore in Q4FY25 dragged down by high expenses and losses in its petrochemicals business neutralising gains from LPG and natural gas transmission services.

However, the net profit of the country’s largest gas utility fell by almost 39 per cent on a sequential basis, which was due to a one-time gain from an arbitration award in Q3FY25.
