New Delhi: In a significant move to strengthen its international investment capabilities, the Board of Oil and Natural Gas Corporation Ltd (ONGC) has approved a corporate guarantee of up to USD 412 million to support fund-raising activities by its step-down subsidiary OVL Overseas IFSC Limited (OOIL).

The approval was granted during a board meeting held on June 20, ONGC disclosed in a regulatory filing to the stock exchanges. The newly approved amount includes an earlier sanctioned guarantee of USD 257.5 million from the board’s January 31, 2025, meeting, thereby bringing the total aggregate guarantee to USD 412 million.

Supporting Global Exploration and Investment Efforts
According to ONGC, the funds raised by OOIL will be used for refinancing existing loans or raising fresh capital. These proceeds will be directed toward ONGC Videsh Limited (OVL), its wholly owned international exploration and production arm, as well as ONGC Videsh Rovuma Limited (OVRL) or any other fully owned OVL subsidiary, in compliance with overseas direct investment (ODI) norms and guidelines established by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) and other regulatory bodies.
