The various opportunities are listed below. Threat: Since the company has the maximum number of out lets and also the maximum no. of refineries in India, it can very easily go for extension at any point of time, and can introduce any new produets, which will get support from its huge market network. The company can make the buying process more easy for the customers, by implying many more schemes in the range of XTRAPOWER AND XTRAREWARD. The company can think over the issue to build its own pipelines, so that it will be a independent player and it will also support its aviation fuel supply. Company has a great scope in E&P. It already operates in this business but in a limited scale. Since the company is the market leader in the field , so have maximum threats from the other players and many other issues. The lists of threats are given below. The foreign players with more advanced technology are the biggest threat for the company. The crude oil supply is also a big issue in front of the company, because the company cannot fix its price and so, some time had operate in loss also. it is the biggest problem because the maximum part of their crude is been imported, In future the market will welcome more private players, which will eat up its market share.
