what happened
According to TradingView, Rallis India, a Tata Group company, posted second-quarter FY27 net profit of 85 crore rupees, down from 102 crore a year earlier. The figure is 16% lower but above the 64 crore rupee estimate in the CNBC-TV18 poll. Revenue was almost flat at 858 crore rupees versus 862 crore, compared with a poll forecast of 782 crore. EBITDA fell 13% to 134 crore rupees, and the margin narrowed to 15% from 18%, though this also topped expectations.
The Crop Care business grew revenue 4% to 788 crore rupees, and B2B and export lines also expanded. The seeds unit was the weak spot, with revenue down 31% to 70 crore rupees and EBITDA falling to zero. The company cited lower paddy acreage, higher sales returns and weak monsoon conditions.
On Friday, the shares traded about 3.7% lower at 196.1 rupees, 34% below their 52-week high of 298 rupees.
why it matters
The results came in better than the consensus, but pressure on margins persists due to higher input costs and soft seed demand. For agrochemical investors, the quarter highlights how sensitive sales are to weather and seasonal patterns.
