Coromandel International Limited Q1 FY27
What went well
- Consolidated total income grew 15% YoY to ₹8,215 crores, driven by higher fertilizer realization and non-subsidy business growth.
- Crop Protection business delivered a record performance, with revenue growing 20% YoY to ₹870 crores and EBIT increasing 44% to ₹159 crores.
- Retail business revenue surged 85% YoY, with 76% of its 1,200+ stores achieving profitability during the quarter.
What to watch
- Consolidated EBITDA saw a 3% degrowth to ₹761 crores, and net profit declined 24% to ₹382 crores YoY.
- Elevated global raw material prices (phosphoric acid, ammonia, sulphur) were not fully compensated by government subsidy rates, impacting fertilizer margins.
