Press release For Immediate release Leadership Comment: Mr. Ashwin Muthiah, Chairman – SPIC, said: “The global economic environment remains volatile, impacting commodity prices, supply chains and input costs. Despite these challenges, SPIC recorded healthy revenue growth in Q2 FY27 compared with the corresponding quarter of the previous year. However, rising input costs put pressure on margins and profitability. We will continue our focus on operational efficiency and cost optimization. We are also working closely with the government to ensure the timely availability of fertilizers to farmers. As an integral part of India's agricultural ecosystem, we remain committed to supporting the country's agricultural progress and the needs of its farming community. Fertilizer sector overview: India's 2026 southwest monsoon ended with a rainfall deficit of 12.6%, the weakest in over a decade and the fourth-lowest since 2001. The shortfall, attributed to an active El Niño pattern , added to the challenges facing the fertiliser industry amid global supply-chain disruptions. However, advance procurement and supply planning helped maintain availability, with fertiliser inventories reaching a two-year high ahead of the rabi season. Fertiliser sales across major categories declined during April–September 2026 compared with the corresponding period in 2025, as inadequate rainfall dampened farm demand despite relatively stable kharif acreage. On the supply side, domestic urea production increased by 4.0% during the period, supported by efforts to secure feedstock and maintain supplies. As the rabi season progresses, adequate inventories and timely distribution could support demand recovery. However, rainfall patterns, global input prices, and farmers' purchasing decisions will remain key factors influencing the industry's performance.
