Aarti Industries Limited has released the transcript of its Q1 FY27 Earnings Conference Call, which was held on July 31, 2026. The call featured insights from Executive Director and CEO, Mr. Suyog Kotecha, and CFO, Mr. Chetan Gandhi.
During the quarter, the company faced a challenging macro environment marked by geopolitical tensions, increased freight costs, and inflation in raw material prices. Despite these headwinds, demand for core products remained stable. Revenue grew by 41% year-on-year to ₹2,627 crore, and EBITDA surged by 79% year-on-year to ₹385 crore, driven by product mix optimization and monetization of low-cost inventories. Profit After Tax (PAT) registered a significant growth of 260% year-on-year to ₹155 crore.
The Energy business, particularly Fuel Additives, saw robust demand visibility. However, the West Asia crisis impacted exports to the region, reducing its revenue share from 15% to 2%. The company successfully redirected volumes to other markets and completed a capacity expansion for fuel additives to 360 KTPA. In the Non-Energy business, demand trends were mixed, with soft demand in polymers and headwinds in the Dyes and Pigments segment. Pharma demand remained stable, while Agrochemical volumes were marginally lower due to customer resistance to elevated raw material prices, with recovery expected in Q2 FY27.
Key projects are progressing, including the Zone 4 project expansion, which is being commissioned in a phased manner in FY27 with ramp-up expected over FY28 and FY29. The PEDA project is expected to be commercialized soon. The company also plans to debottleneck its DCB capacity to 140 KTPA. FY27 CAPEX is on track within the ₹700 to ₹800 crore range, with ₹180 crore deployed in Q1 FY27. Future capital deployment will focus on high-growth, high-return niche projects.
Strategic initiatives include a joint venture with Superform for downstream amine derivatives, Augene Chemicals, expected to commission in Q2 FY27. Aarti Industries also launched a plastic recycling initiative, Aarti Circularity, with Re Sustainability, slated for commissioning in the second half of FY27. The company achieved the EcoVadis Platinum Rating 2026, placing it among the top 1% globally for sustainability performance. Aarti Industries also plans to set up a subsidiary in China to expand its global footprint and enhance sourcing capabilities.
Management discussed the impact of raw material price volatility, inventory gains, and currency fluctuations on EBITDA. They also addressed delays in certain Zone 4 project chemistries due to labor constraints and execution challenges, while reiterating confidence in long-term growth prospects driven by a diversified portfolio, expanded capacities, and strong customer relationships.
