History
The company was founded in 2001 and offered initial public offering in 2007.[3] In 2005, it received oil marketing license from the government.[4]
In 2014, the company was listed on the Karachi Stock Exchange.[4] In 2017, the company announced that it was investing US$20 million, in collaboration with Fuchs, to set up a new plant in Bin Qasim, Karachi.[5] In the same year, it became second-largest oil marketing company in the country.[4]
Vitol, global commodities trader, acquired percent and 15 percent shares in Hascol between 2015 and 2016,[3] and in October 2019, Vitol announced that it was raising its shareholding upward to 41 percent.[6]
In 2021, a scandal surfaced that the company had falsified its books and financial statements in 2019,[7] this, coupled with mounting losses resulted in the company's share price tumbling from over Rs. 300 in 2018 to about Rs. 5 in 2021, and the Pakistan Stock Exchange declaring the company to be in default.[8] The company had its assets frozen by the High Court of Sindh upon request of the company's creditors.[9]
