The TAN project at Gopalpur is 87% complete and nitric acid project at 70%, both on track for commissioning by end of Q4 FY26.
Management expects the new TAN plant to achieve ~70% capacity utilization in FY27 and 80%+ in FY28.
A planned shutdown in Q4 FY26 is expected to increase ammonia plant capacity by ~10% and improve efficiency.
The new LNG contract with Equinor will start supply from May 2026, expected to materially reduce gas costs and lower ammonia breakeven.
Both projects are progressing well (91% and 79% completion) and will materially enhance competitiveness and margin resilience once operational.
The long-term LNG contract with a Norwegian giant will lower gas costs, reducing the ammonia break-even level significantly from current ~$430-440/ton.
Discussions with ministries suggest the 50,000 ton/year export quota may be removed as India becomes self-sufficient in ammonium nitrate.
