10. ย Reasons to apply Near monopoly and high entry barriers : ONGC currently accounts for 84% of the domestic natural gas and crude supply, which can be largely attributed to its vast geographical presence across the country. Benefits of downward integration:ย ONGC has been granted license to set up 1,100 retail outlets for the purpose of marketing petroleum products and motor spirit. Further, it has acquired management control of MRPL, which marks its entry into the refinery business.
11. ย CONTINEDโฆ OVL's encouraging business model: ONGC through its wholly owned subsidiary, ONGC Videsh (OVL), has picked up stake in oil equities abroad (eight countries) and has a target to expand its oil equity base to 20 MT by 2010.ย Abolishment of subsidies:ย Over the past few years, the government has been reducing its share in the LPG and SKO (superior kerosene oil) subsidy bill and it is likely that in the next 2 to 3 years, the GOI's share will become zero.
12. ย Reasons not to apply Government control on allocation. Government deregulation. High capital expenditure plans. OVL's venture into politically unstable areas. High contingent liabilities
