Analyst View
| Positive Factors | Risk Factors |
| Strong momentum breakout | RSI indicates overbought conditions |
| Rising CNG prices support margins | Near-term consolidation possible |
| Strong Q4 earnings growth | High valuation at 140+ P/E |
| Sustained buying volumes | Elevated volatility |
Analysts say the stock remains technically strong, but sharp gains in a short period could trigger temporary consolidation or profit booking in the near term.
Rising CNG Prices Are Supporting the Stock Rally
One major reason behind the rally is the continuous increase in CNG prices.
Compressed natural gas prices have been hiked four times in the past two weeks. The increase comes amid rising global energy costs and geopolitical tensions in West Asia.
Higher CNG prices usually improve profitability for city gas distribution companies.
That is why investors are turning bullish on companies like Adani Total Gas.
Market participants believe stronger margins could support earnings growth in the coming quarters.
Strong Q4 Earnings Added Fresh Momentum
Adani Total Gas also reported healthy March quarter earnings, which further boosted investor confidence.
The company posted a consolidated net profit of Rs 168.34 crore in Q4. That was 9 percent higher compared to Rs 154.59 crore in the same quarter last year.
On a sequential basis, profit rose 8 percent from Rs 157.22 crore reported in the December quarter.
Revenue from operations also increased strongly.
The company reported revenue of Rs 1,694.61 crore for the March quarter, up 16.62 percent from Rs 1,453.37 crore a year ago.
The earnings growth strengthened positive sentiment around the stock.
Adani Total Gas Profit Growth: 5-Year Analysis
Adani Total Gas has delivered moderate but steady long-term profit growth over the past five years, although earnings momentum has slowed in recent quarters due to rising gas procurement costs and pricing pressures.
Adani Total Gas Profit Growth
| Metric | Growth |
|---|---|
| 5-Year Profit CAGR | 8.2%–8.5% |
| 3-Year Profit CAGR | 8.7% |
| Recent 1-Year Profit Growth | -0.8% to -2% |
| 5-Year EPS Growth | 8.4% |

Net Profit Trend
| Financial Year | Net Profit (Approx.) | YoY Growth |
| FY21 | ₹436 crore | — |
| FY22 | ₹509 crore | +16% |
| FY23 | ₹546 crore | +7% |
| FY24 | ₹667 crore | +22% |
| FY25 | ₹654–₹637 crore | Slight decline |
According to annual report analysis, FY25 net profit declined slightly compared with FY24 due to higher input costs and reduced allocation of low-cost domestic gas supplies.
Why Profit Growth Slowed Recently
Rising Gas Procurement Costs
The Indian government reduced allocation of cheaper domestic natural gas to city gas distributors, forcing companies like Adani Total Gas to procure costlier LNG and imported gas.
Margin Pressure
Higher procurement costs increased overall expenses, which impacted profitability despite strong growth in CNG and PNG volumes.
Revenue Growth Still Remains Strong
Despite profit moderation, the company continued reporting healthy revenue growth driven by:
- rising CNG demand,
- network expansion,
- new CNG stations,
- and increasing PNG household connections.
Long-Term Growth Drivers
Expansion of City Gas Distribution Network
Adani Total Gas has aggressively expanded:
- CNG stations,
- PNG household connections,
- LNG infrastructure,
- and EV charging networks.
India’s Clean Energy Transition
The long-term city gas distribution story remains strong as India pushes cleaner fuel adoption and reduces dependence on traditional fuels.
Rising CNG Adoption
CNG demand growth continues to support earnings visibility for city gas companies despite temporary margin pressures.
Analysts Say the Stock Is Entering Overbought Territory
Despite the sharp rally, analysts are advising investors to stay cautious at higher levels.
Technical experts believe the stock may witness short-term consolidation after the recent breakout.
“In the recent sessions, Adani Total Gas has seen a sharp breakout with strong volumes and sustained price action,” said Kunal Kamble, Senior Technical Research Analyst at Bonanza.
“The stock has moved above its short-term moving averages and is approaching a key resistance zone around 780–800 levels,” he added.
Kamble said the stock could move toward Rs 850 and Rs 900 if it manages to hold above Rs 740.
However, he also warned that momentum indicators are now looking overheated.
“At the same time, momentum indicators show the stock is in overbought territory, which could lead to some consolidation in the near term,” he said.
According to him, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) has crossed above 75, which is generally considered an overbought signal.
Immediate support for the stock is seen near Rs 700 and Rs 645.
Is Adani Total Gas Overbought?
Technical Indicators Signal Overheated Momentum
Technical indicators suggest Adani Total Gas may be entering overbought territory after its sharp rally over the past month.
The stock has surged more than 27% in one month and recently touched a fresh 52-week high of ₹830 amid aggressive buying momentum.
RSI Crosses Key Overbought Levels
According to technical data, Adani Total Gas’ Relative Strength Index (RSI) has reportedly moved above 80, significantly higher than the 70 level generally considered overbought by traders.
Analysts say such elevated RSI readings often reflect extremely strong bullish sentiment but can also increase the probability of:
- short-term profit booking,
- temporary pullbacks,
- or price consolidation after a rapid rally.
Momentum Remains Strong
Despite concerns around overbought conditions, the stock continues to trade above its key short-term and medium-term moving averages.
Technical analysts believe this indicates that the broader bullish trend remains intact unless major support zones are broken decisively.

Analysts Caution Against Chasing Sharp Moves
Market experts say momentum-driven rallies can continue longer than expected during strong bullish phases, especially in high-beta energy and Adani Group stocks.
However, they also caution that elevated volatility and stretched technical indicators could trigger sudden corrections if broader market sentiment weakens or profit booking intensifies.
