Without further ado, I would like to hand over the call to Mr. M. K. Dhanuka for opening

M. K. Dhanuka: Thank you, Manish Ji. Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. Myself, I am M. K. Dhanuka –
Chairman of Dhanuka Agritech Limited, and I welcome you all to the Q1 FY 2026-2027
Earnings Conference Call.
I have with me Mr. Rahul Dhanuka – Managing Director, and Mr. V. K. Bansal – CFO of the
company.
As you are aware, Dhanuka Agritech is among India's leading Agrochemical companies with a
long-standing commitment towards advancing Indian agriculture through technology-led crop
solutions.
Over the years, we have built a strong pan-India franchise with deep farmer engagement and a
differentiated product portfolio and a robust distribution network. Today we reach more than 10
million farmers across India through approximately 6,500 distributors and over 80,000 retailers.
Supported by four manufacturing facilities and 41 warehouses, we continue to strengthen our
ability to deliver products efficiently across key agricultural markets.
A key differentiator for Dhanuka has been our consistent focus on introduction of innovative
and globally relevant chemistries in the Indian market. Our partnership with 10 leading

multinational Agrochemical innovators from Japan, Europe, and the U.S. continue to provide us
access to the advanced technologies in differentiated solutions for Indian farmers.
Our two R&D centers, supported by NABL accredited laboratories and a strong regulatory and
product development team, remain focused on product registration, formulation development,
and strengthening our future growth pipeline.
The Agrochemical industry witnessed a significantly challenging 1st Quarter of FY 2026-2027.
Across the sector, revenue growth remained under pressure due to delayed monsoon onset in
several key agricultural regions, which postponed sowing activities and led to reduction in
product demand from 1st Quarter to the subsequent month. Industry estimates indicated modest
revenue growth while profitability remained under pressure owing to weaker domestic demand
and price competition.
You are well aware that in the month of June, we had 40% shortfall in the rain, and by the end
of July, it came down to 15% shortfall. Even 1% shortfall in the rainfall impacts the sowing areas
and the overall growth of the crops.
In addition, the sector continued to face challenges arising from elevated raw material and
logistics costs during the quarter. Several companies attempted price increases during the initial
months of the season to offset higher costs linked to geopolitical tensions in West Asia.
However, weak market demand limited the sustainability of such hikes. Against this backdrop,
I would like to share that Dhanuka delivered subdued operational and financial performance
during the quarter.
Revenue from operations for Q1 FY 2026-2027 stood at Rs. 461.93 crores as compared to Rs.
528.29 crores in Q1 of FY 2025-2026, registering a degrowth of approximately 12.56%.
EBITDA for the quarter stood at Rs. 55.01 crores and profit after tax stood at Rs. 36.30 crores.
Our balance sheet and cash generation continue to remain strong, providing us the flexibility to
invest for future growth while overcoming the short-term headwinds and turbulence.
The zone-wise contribution to turnover for Q1 FY 2026-2027 was North contributed 36%, East
contributed lowest – 9%, West contributed 37%, and South contributed 18%.
Product category-wise Share was Insecticides contributed 25%, Fungicides contributed 14%,
Herbicides contributed 42%, and others contributed 19%.
While the 1st Quarter was impacted by delayed seasonal demand, pricing pressures, and external
uncertainties, we believe these are largely cyclical challenges. The long-term growth drivers of

the Indian Agrochemical industry remain intact, and we remain optimistic about stronger
momentum in the coming quarters.
As shareholders of the company, in the 41st annual general meeting held today at 11:00 A.M.,
considered the final dividend of 100%, that is Rs. 2 per equity share, having face value of Rs. 2
per share, and the result for the dividend will be declared within due course. The company
already rewarded the shareholder with a buyback of 5 lakh equity shares at the rate of Rs. 1,400
per equity share, absorbing Rs. 70 crores.
Further, it is to inform you that the company has acquired land at Nagpur, Maharashtra, for
setting up a new manufacturing plant. This is in the Butibori zone of Nagpur, the industrial area.
The total estimated outlay for the project is expected to be up to Rs. 200 crores. The proposed
capacity of the plant will be 23,000 metric ton per annum. It is expected that the said plant will
be operational by April 2028.
We are pleased to inform you that in the upcoming months, we are planning to launch five new
products consisting of one Liquid Fertilizer, three Fungicides, and one Herbicide. At Dhanuka,
we continue to believe that sustainable business growth must go hand in hand with farmer
prosperity and national food security. Our continued engagement with agriculture universities,
Krishi Vigyan Kendras, and other scientific institutions remains an important part of our farmer
