Based on reports, the panel said the government should act to raise KG-D6 output which fell drastically in the last three years. The panel has also asked the oil ministry to approve the RIL’s D6's budget on time.  
 
The audit panel’s report is on the production sharing pacts between 2008 and 2012. Analysts say this is a big positive for RIL which was fighting a pitched battle with the previous UPA government and the CAG on the extra expenditure incurred on KG-D6 and the fall in production.
