-
Q3 FY26 delivered strong sequential growth in revenue, EBITDA, and profit, with exports at a record 65% of revenue. Macro tailwinds from trade deals and China’s policy shifts are expected to drive further margin and volume gains, while CapEx and new projects support future growth.

Q1 FY26 saw revenue and EBITDA decline due to geopolitical disruptions, raw material price drops, and new U.S. tariffs, but demand and capacity expansion support a positive outlook. Cost-saving measures and strategic CapEx are on track, with recovery expected in H2.
Fiscal Year 2025
-
FY 2025 saw 15% revenue and 3% EBITDA growth, driven by strong volume recovery and cost optimization, despite global volatility and higher costs. FY 2026 is expected to continue volume-led growth, with CapEx focused on new projects and net debt set to decline.
-
Q3 FY25 saw strong volume growth and sequential EBITDA improvement, despite margin pressure from global overcapacity and pricing challenges. Major capacity expansions, renewable energy initiatives, and a new recycling JV support long-term growth, with CapEx and ROCE guidance reaffirmed.
-
Q2 saw EBITDA decline sequentially but H1 FY25 results showed YoY growth, with robust non-energy volumes and a challenging energy segment due to lower refining margins. Management maintains FY25 EBITDA guidance, targets significant growth by FY28, and is focused on cost optimization, capacity ramp-up, and prudent CapEx.
-
Revenue and EBITDA grew both sequentially and YoY, driven by strong volume growth and new project ramp-ups, despite margin pressure from Chinese overcapacity and volatile energy markets. Major CapEx projects and a JV with UPL are on track, with debt expected to peak in FY25.
