Executive summary
Revenue declined in Q2 and H1 FY27, while EBITDA and PAT rose sharply as margins expanded amid weak domestic crop-protection demand.
Strategy emphasized patented and specialized products, lower operating expenses and tighter cost discipline.
Financial highlights
Consolidated revenue from operations was ₹407.12 crore in Q2FY27, down 21% YoY, and ₹803.32 crore in H1FY27, down 11%.
Q2 EBITDA rose 30% to ₹101 crore; H1 EBITDA increased 45% to ₹178 crore from ₹123 crore.
Consolidated PAT was ₹57.46 crore in Q2FY27 versus ₹38.93 crore, and ₹98.11 crore in H1FY27 versus ₹58.85 crore.
Gross margin was ₹182 crore in Q2, up 7%, and ₹328 crore in H1, up 17%; operating expenses excluding finance costs and depreciation fell 12% and 5%, respectively.
EPS increased to ₹1.62 in Q2 from ₹1.10 and to ₹2.77 in H1 from ₹1.66.
Outlook and guidance
FY revenue target remained unchanged; management expects to close at last year’s level, while 10%-15% growth was described as uncertain, not assured.
H2 profitability is expected to improve YoY, with no H2 losses expected; domestic performance depends on Rabi sowing, soil moisture, irrigation and farmer investment.
Higher sales-return provisions and clearance deadlines aim to limit surprises; 95% of returns had been received by end-October.
New CapEx is deferred until profitability is under control; inventory reduction from February-March is expected to improve the balance sheet.
