📉 H1FY27 revenue from operations was Rs 1,970.7 crore against Rs 1,986.6 crore, with operating EBITDA of Rs 419.1 crore (21.3% margin) versus Rs 437.2 crore. Net profit rose to Rs 371.9 crore, but Q1FY27 includes a Rs 26.9 crore exceptional insurance claim for the FY23 Bhavnagar fire. Q2FY27 revenue was Rs 907.3 crore, down 2%, with EBITDA margin down 297 bps to 20.5%.
📉 The company attributes weakness to a delayed monsoon and 13% rainfall deficit; Q2 domestic revenue grew 2% to Rs 774 crore while exports fell 23% to Rs 127 crore. Management says Q2 margins absorbed higher-cost inventory and the mismatch substantially normalised by end of Q2.
📌 Management states H2FY27 is expected to remain challenging amid low reservoir levels, extended El Nino and possible acreage constraints, and says it will rely on disciplined execution, differentiated products and dynamic pricing.
🏭 The presentation lists capex of ~Rs 150 crore for a herbicide intermediate plant at Dahej (estimated commercialization Q2 FY2028-29) and ~Rs 10 crore at Tarapur (Q4 FY2027-28), both supplying the parent, with payback stated at under 5 years.
