strengthening our future product pipeline. Agrochemical sector in India is experiencing a weak
and highly subdued earnings season for the second quarter for FY26-'27 Performance across
major players is impacted by erratic and uneven monsoon rainfall and persistently high raw
material procurement costs.
The monsoon rainfall was lower by a sharp 13% with sigficant regional and monthly variations
across key agricultural beds. This has led to compressed volumes and margins across the
industry. This weather disturbance significantly disrupted traditional farming cycle, delayed
crop care applications and led to a market contraction of consumption at farmer level.
Due to the dry weather, performance of our herbicides was significantly impacted while
insecticide segment has good growth. Despite all these challenges, I'm pleased to report that our
company delivered resilient performance.
Our diversified geographic footprint allowed us to capture demand from region which had a
availability of water resources. While generic crop production saw severe pricing pressure, our
attention to specialized products and reintroduction of biostimulant product range from Q2
protected our gross margin.
Unlike the high-cost inventory issues lagging the sector, our proactive raw material sourcing and
lean distributor inventory levels ensured zero channel stuffing and healthy cash generation.
Looking ahead, we remain subdued in this year for Q3 and Q4. Channel inventories for Dhanuka
are optimal. The initial movement for the upcoming Rabi season looks promising in certain
regions. The key for the Rabi season will be performance of South and East zones.
In terms of financial performance for the second quarter, revenue from operations for Q2 FY26-
'27 stood at INR657.51 crores as compared to INR598.24 crores in Q2 FY25-'26, registering a
growth of approximately 9.91%.
EBITDA was INR152.97 crores as against INR136.73 crores in the corresponding quarter of
previous year. Profit after tax stood at INR109.22 crores compared to INR93.97 crores in Q2
FY25-'26, reflecting healthy profitability improvement supported by product mix, operational
efficiencies and disciplined cost management. Our balance sheet and cash generation continue
to remain strong, providing us the flexibility to invest for future growth.
The zone-wise contribution to turnover for Q2 FY26-'27 was North India contributed 31%, East
India contributed 12%, West India contributed 28% and South India contributed 29%. From a
product category perspective, insecticides contributed 47%. You will notice, as -- I spoken
earlier, insecticide segment has done very well and 47% share came from insecticide segment,
25% contribution from fungicide segment and only 8% herbicide contribution was there and
20% others contribution.
At Dhanuka, we continue to believe that sustainable business growth must go hand-in-hand with
farmer prosperity and national food security
