New Delhi, 18 Dec: Oil and Natural Gas Corporation Limited (ONGC) has issued a public notice cautioning the general public, government authorities, vendors, contractors, banks, financial institutions and all other stakeholders against an unauthorised entity operating under the name “ONGC INDIA”, which is falsely impersonating association with ONGC.
ONGC has clarified that the said entity has no relationship, affiliation or association whatsoever with Oil and Natural Gas Corporation Limited or any of its subsidiaries or Group companies. The use of the name “ONGC INDIA” and related representations is unauthorised and appears to be with malafide intent to mislead stakeholders and cause wrongful gain.
All stakeholders are advised to immediately desist from dealing with the said entity or with any individual or organisation claiming association with ONGC under the aforesaid name. Any transactions or dealings undertaken with such entities shall be entirely at the risk, cost and consequences of the concerned parties. Under no circumstances shall ONGC be held liable for any loss, damage or consequences arising from such dealings.
ONGC has further requested that any person or organisation that has come across or engaged in such unauthorised dealings may report the same to ONGC along with relevant documentary evidence, to enable the Corporation to take appropriate action in accordance with law.
ONGC reserves the right to initiate stringent civil and criminal proceedings against the said entity and all other persons involved in acts of impersonation, misrepresentation, cheating and fraud.
