The state-run listed company Meghna Petroleum has signed agreements with four non-listed companies – Beximco LPG Unit-1, Bashundhara LP Gas, Omera Gas One and Unitex LP Gas as part of its business expansion by selling LPG.
Under the agreement, the state-run petroleum company will sell these companies’ LPG by establishing LPG (Autogas) refueling station and liquefied petroleum gas conversion workshop parallel to the sale of petroleum oil through the company’s registered filling station.
The Meghna Petroleum will receive royalty of Tk 0.50 against per liter sale of LPG, according to a disclosure posted on the Dhaka Stock Exchange (DSE) website on Sunday.
The Meghna Petroleum, a statutory organisation under the power, energy and mineral resources ministry, has stepped forward to make LPG more available as a primary fuel source for vehicles in Bangladesh.
The move comes as part of the government’s ongoing efforts to increase LPG consumption in the country, where reserves of natural gas are depleting rapidly.

The company’s earnings per share (EPS) stood at Tk 19.72 in nine months for July, 2019 to March, 2020, which was Tk 21.53 in the same period of the previous year.
The company disbursed 150 per cent cash dividend in 2019.
The company’s paid-up capital is Tk 1.08 billion and authorised capital is Tk 4.0 billion while the total number of securities is 108.21 million.
