2-Minute Summary

✦ AI-Generated from Full Transcript

Deepak Nitrite reported Q1 FY26 consolidated revenue of ₹1,897 crore, with EBITDA of ₹197 crore (margin 10%), up 11% sequentially. The advanced intermediates segment faced headwinds from delayed agrochemical orders and Chinese oversupply, while phenolics benefited from steady demand and cost optimization. Management guided for recovery in agrochemicals from Q2, with new projects (nitric acid, MIBK/MIBC, hydrogenation) commissioning through FY26. The polycarbonate complex remains on track for December 2027. Key risk: US tariff exposure is limited (2.5-3% of sales), but second-order impacts on customer demand remain uncertain. Management emphasized domestic focus and import substitution as strategic buffers.
