J.G.Chemicals Limited Q1 FY27
What went well
- Achieved best-ever quarterly performance in Q1 FY27 with revenue, EBITDA, and PAT reaching all-time new highs.
- Consolidated revenue from operations grew 44.8% YoY to ₹315.7 crores and 10.3% QoQ.
- EBITDA margin expanded to 11.5% in Q1 FY27 from 10.64% in Q1 FY26, driven by operating leverage, specialized applications, and higher-priced orders.
What to watch
- Geopolitical conflicts impacted global supply chains for Zinc Dross, a primary raw material, though JGC managed continuous supply.
- Zinc price volatility exists, but management claims neutrality to its impact on margins.
What J.G.Chemicals Limited does
J.G.Chemicals Limited recycles zinc dross, ash and scrap sourced from steel galvanisers worldwide into Zinc Oxide, Zinc Sulphate and other zinc chemicals using its proprietary in-house recycling technology (based on the French Process). It sells over 90 customised Zinc Oxide grades to industries such as tyres and rubber, ceramics, paints and coatings, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, electronics and batteries, agrochemicals and fertilizers, lubricants, oil and gas, and animal feed. Its subsidiary BDJ Oxides Private Limited operates the Naidupeta (Andhra Pradesh) plant, the only IATF-16949 certified Zinc Oxide facility globally and a WHO-GMP certified site, letting the group also supply pharma/cosmetics-grade material. Revenue is earned mainly by selling these zinc chemicals directly to end customers, including nine of the world's top ten and all of India's top eleven tyre manufacturers.
