G S F C Q4 FY26
What went well
- FY26 Standalone Sales increased by 15% YoY to INR10,827 crores.
- FY26 Standalone PAT grew by 14% YoY to INR652 crores.
- Q4 FY26 achieved highest ever sales of INR2,622 crores and highest ever fertilizer sales of INR1,985 crores.
What to watch
- Significant escalation in raw material prices (natural gas, ammonia, sulfur, sulfuric acid) due to geopolitical developments.
- Elevated caprolactam and nylon 6 prices seen in Q4 FY26 are unlikely to hold, leading to pressure on realizations.
