Quarter read
What the record says.
Nuvoco Vistas delivered its strongest annual performance in FY26, with record volumes of 20.4 million tons and EBITDA of ₹1,881 crore. Q4 was a landmark quarter, achieving 6 million tons in volume and quarterly EBITDA of ₹580 crore. The premium mix expanded by 300 bps to 43%. However, the outlook is clouded by significant cost headwinds: petcoke prices have risen sharply, and packaging costs are up ~₹100/ton due to granular shortages. Management has taken price hikes of ₹8-12/bag in trade and ₹10-15/bag in non-trade across markets, but these only partially offset the estimated ₹200/ton cost inflation. The Badra cement project remains on schedule for phased commissioning from Q3 FY27. Key risks include further escalation in fuel and packaging costs, and potential demand disruption from bag shortages and rail availability issues.
Colored figures show movement against the previous available record.
Guidance to track
- Capital expenditure primarily for the Badra cement project and east expansion.
- Management targets to grow in line with industry, supported by government capex and housing schemes.
- Clinker and grinding units at Badra to be commissioned as per schedule.
- Management aims to maintain leverage within this range despite higher capex.
Risks flagged
- Petcoke and granular costs may rise further due to geopolitical tensions, impacting margins.
- Shortage of packaging bags and rail rakes could constrain volume growth in near term.
- Price hikes taken may not fully offset the ₹200/ton cost inflation, pressuring EBITDA margins.
- Some markets outside core east region are showing weak demand, which could affect overall growth.
Key quotes
- We ended the year on a high note and delivered the strongest annual performance for Nuvoco.
- I am fairly confident that the price hikes which we have taken will stay put in the near term.
- We will not drop price to increase market share... that's not in the DNA of the organization.
